you have a 50/50 chance of producing both a male and female offspring, it really depends on whether or not your offspring's DNA will have XY chromosomes (male) or XX chromosomes (female)
From the cross Aa x Aa, the probability of producing a homozygous dominant offspring is 1/4 or (0.25).
100% of all male offspring will be colorblind. 0% of all femal offspring will be colorblind.
There are factors such as genetic tendencies, age etc which favour male or female offspring so that the probability of a male offspring is not uniformally 1/2. Next, the question does not specify how many offspring in all, so the possible sequences could be [any sequence whether or not containing MMM] followed by [MMM] followed by [any sequence whether or not containing MMM]. As the sequence grows longer, the probability that somewhere in the sequence there are 3 male offspring in a row increases. For 3 offspring, the probability is 1/8 = 0.125 for 8 offspring, the probability is 107/256 = 0.418 The probabilities would need to be weighted together using the proportion of families that have 3 children, 4 children, and so on.
Here are the four possibilities: AA Aa Aa aa Therefore there is a 25% chance of producing a homozygous dominant offspring (AA).
To determine the probability of an offspring mouse being born with the genotype ff ee, you need to know the genotypes of the parent mice. If both parents are heterozygous (Ff Ee), the probability of producing ff offspring is 1/4 and for ee offspring is also 1/4. To find the probability of the combined genotype ff ee, you multiply these probabilities: (1/4) x (1/4) = 1/16. Thus, there is a 1/16 probability that an offspring mouse will have the genotype ff ee, assuming both parents are Ff Ee.

Without any further information, the probability is between 0.0001 and 0.0002
100% of all male offspring will be colorblind. 0% of all femal offspring will be colorblind.

The probability is 50%. There are four probabilities: dominant homozygous, recessive homozygous, or heterozygous.
Each parent contributes 50% of the genetic make-up of the offspring.
Here are the four possibilities: AA Aa Aa aa Therefore there is a 25% chance of producing a homozygous dominant offspring (AA).
50% because the male and female would both have the chance
