What is the probability of 2 heterozygous individuals producing a homozygous recessive offspring?
25%
What is the probability of 2 heterozygous individuals producing a heterozygous recessive offspring?
The probability is 50%. There are four probabilities: dominant homozygous, recessive homozygous, or heterozygous.
What is the probability of a down syndrome carrier male and a non-carrier female producing non-carrier children?
50%
What is the probability of producing a normal child by two parents who are carriers for an autosomal recessive disorder?
75%. Explanation: if both parents are carriers than their Gametes would be Dd x Dd, resulting in DD (1/4), Dd (2/4), and dd(1/4), meaning that there is a 25% chance that they will have a child that has the disorder. DD = A normal child that lacks the recessive gene, therefore not a carrier Dd = A normal child that carries the recessive gene dd = A child with the disorder + carries the gene, hence the child's future offspring will carry it as well.

What is the probability of a Down syndrome woman and a non-carrier male producing non-carrier children?
I am unsure of the answer to this question, but I feel the need to remove the previous ridiculous answer stating that "women with down syndrome are sterile." They ARE indeed fertile. I am in search of the same information, and will be editing this post once I find the correct answer.
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 of 2 heterozygous individuals producing a homozygous recessive offspring?
25%
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 of producing a homozygous dominant offspring from the cross of AA and AA?
1/16
What is the probability of 2 heterozygous individuals producing a heterozygous recessive offspring?
The probability is 50%. There are four probabilities: dominant homozygous, recessive homozygous, or heterozygous.
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 of 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)
