What is the probability of producing a male offspring?
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)
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.
What is the probability that an offspring will be white?
The question depends on what the offspring is of!
Principle of probabilities?
the probability of the offspring for a second generation.

What is the probability that a male offspring will have hemophilia?
Without any further information, the probability is between 0.0001 and 0.0002

What is the probability of a human offspring being female?
50% because the male and female would both have the chance

The question depends on what the offspring is of!
What is the probability of a hybrid offspring in a cross between two hybrid plants?
The hybrid is the offspring so the probability is 1.
What is the Probability of having a female offspring?
50%
What is the probability the human offspring will be female?
51%..
What is a male offspring?
The male offspring of a person is called that person's Son.
What percentages can be expected in the offspring of cross between a female carrier for color blindness and a male with normal color vision?
50% probability that the sons produced from this union will be color blind. 50% probability that a son will not have the disease. 50% probability that a daughter will be a carrier of the allele for color blindness. 50% probability that a daughter will not be a carrier. Phenotypically this would be 1male color blind, 1 male not color blind, 1 female carrier and 1 female non-carrier. Assuming that the probability of male and female offspring is identical...this would be 25% of each genotype mentioned above. Based on phenotype, without regard to sex the percentages of normal to colorblind would be 75% to 25% with the 25% displaying the characteristic all being male.
