Best Answer

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?

From the cross Aa x Aa, the probability of producing a homozygous dominant offspring is 1/4 or (0.25).


What is the probability that a colorblind female and a normal color vision male will produce an colorblind offspring?

100% of all male offspring will be colorblind. 0% of all femal offspring will be colorblind.


What is the probability of having 3 male offspring in a row?

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.


From the cross AA X AA the probability of producing a homozygous dominat offspring is?

Here are the four possibilities: AA Aa Aa aa Therefore there is a 25% chance of producing a homozygous dominant offspring (AA).


What is the probability that an offspring will be white?

The question depends on what the offspring is of!
