What is the probability of becoming male or female?
there are half the chance of a female and half the chance of male so probabilty in both cases is 1/2
What percent of the world is female?
51%
Does a female lion do 50 percent of the hunting?
No- they do almost ALL the hunting.
What is the probability that a woman who is a carrier of the colorblind gene and a colorblind man will have a daughter who will be colorblind?
the colorblindness is usually not activited in a female body but is usually seen in male
A male who has normal vision marries a female who is a carrier for colorblindness can they have a colorblind daughter?
Assuming that the man who has normal vision is homozygous for normal vision, the couple's daughter will either be homozygous for normal vision or heterozygous (normal vision but carrier for color blindness) for normal vision. In light of this, the couple's daughter will not be color blind.
A female who is a carrier of Fabry's disease has what chance of having a daughter who is a carrier?
The mother has a 50% chance of passing the defective recessive gene to her daughters who will be carries of the disorder (like their mother).
What is a carrier for hemophilia?
A carrier for hemophilia refers to a female that has the genetic mutation for the disorder on one of her two X chromosomes. This means that she can pass the mutation on (with a 50% chance) to her children.
Why can a female be a carrier of a sex linked genetic disorder?
When a female is heterozygous i.e. she possess one allele of disease , she is called carrier .
Who is a person that is a carrier for a sex-linked recessive disorder?
Usually female.
What is true of sex linked alleles'?
A female with one copy of the allele will be a carrier, but not have the disorder.
What percent chance did you and yoyr partner have of producing male or female offspring?
50/50 chance
How many children would have hemophilia if the female was a carrier of hemophilia and male was normal?
Hemophilia is passed down from mother to son. It is extremely rare for a woman to have hemophilia. It is necessary, though, for a woman to be a carrier of the disorder for her son to acquire this disorder. Females have two X chromosomes whereas males only have one. When a boy is born, he takes one X chromosome from his mother and one Y chromosome from his father. Therefore, he can only get hemophilia through his mother. Example One: Mother(Carrier)+Father(Non-Affected)=50% chance of their son acquiring the disorder and 50% chance of their daughter being a carrier. Example Two: Mother(Non-Affected)+Father(Hemophiliac)=All sons will be non-affected and all daughters will be carriers.
Can an eevee lay a female egg in Pokemon diamond?
Yes but there is only a 12.5 percent chance of it happening
Does hemophilia skip a generation?
Haemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder - which means it can skip a generation, but only if it is carried in the female line.A female can be a carrier of haemophilia, but a male cannot. This is because males only have one X chromosome, so if they have a defective X they will have the disorder. If a father has haemophilia, all of his daughters will also have haemophilia.
Can a person be a carrier for a dominant genetic disorder?
Anyone can be a carrier of a recessive genetic disorder (as long as it is not associated with the sex chromosomes) no matter what their gender since "carrier" refers to an individual that is heterozygous for the recessive allele and therefore phenotypically normal. Specifically, sexlinked genetic disorders can be "carried" by a heterozygous female but males (having only one X chromosome) cannot. Males will either be free of the defective gene or be affected.
Red-green colorblindness is an X-linked trait. Color vision (XR) is dominant to red-green colorblindness (Xr). Cynthia has red-green colorblindness and so does her husband Tom. What is the probability?
Using the Punnet square, if the male is xY and the female is XX, where x = recessive and X = dominant, then males get the disease since they only have 1 x chromosome. Females can be carriers, Xx, or have the disease..xx, or not at all XX..so X X (female none carrier)x Xx XxY XY XY(male carrier)Leaves you with 100 percent chance of daughters being carriers, and 100 Percent chance for sons being healthy none carriers....
Father isn't colorblind mother is a carrier--one son is colorblind but the other is not how?
It is called x-linked alleles. It is rare for a female to have color blindness because the allele must be passed from both parents. Males only need one allele to be color blind.With the equation, color blind female and non-color blind male reproduce. Each son has a 50% chance of developing the disorder.
