The probability that a parent carrying a dominant trait will pass that trait on is a 50% chance with each pregnancy

There is not enough information on the propensity for the parents to have a child of either gender and so it is necessary to assume that the probability of the gender of the next child is independent of the genders of preceding children. In that case the probability of the next child being a girl is 1/2.There is not enough information on the propensity for the parents to have a child of either gender and so it is necessary to assume that the probability of the gender of the next child is independent of the genders of preceding children.

The chance of the child having schizophrenia when both parents have schizophrenia is about 37%. There is no data available for other combinations of illnesses, for example if one parent has schizoaffective disorder and the other has schizophrenia.

No probability. Neither parent has an "A" for the child to inherit to make an "AB".
The chance that any child will inherit the dominant allele in this scenario is 50%. If one parent does not carry the allele, they can only pass on the recessive allele. The parent who is heterozygous for the dominant allele can pass on either the dominant or recessive allele, resulting in a 50% chance for each allele to be inherited by the child.
The child will inherit one allele from each parent. Since the mother is homozygous dominant (AA) and the father is homozygous recessive (aa), the child will inherit one dominant allele from the mother and one recessive allele from the father, resulting in a heterozygous genotype (Aa).
The probability of a child having cystic fibrosis in this scenario is 50%. If one parent is homozygous dominant (no cystic fibrosis allele) and the other is a carrier (heterozygous), there is a 50% chance of passing on the cystic fibrosis allele to their child, resulting in the child having cystic fibrosis.
The probability of a child inheriting a dominant allele for one gene from each parent is 1/4, since each parent has a 1/2 chance of passing on the dominant allele. Therefore, the probability of having 3 out of 5 children fulfilling this condition is given by the binomial distribution formula, which calculates the probability of getting exactly 3 successes out of 5 trials. This probability can be determined using statistical software or calculators and is approximately 30%.
Transmitted by a dominant gene. If that gene is inherited from either parent, the offspring will develop HD. If the gene is NOT inherited, then the offspring will not have HD- AND cannot pass the gene to their offspring.
The dominant trait for eye color in humans is brown, which means that if one parent has brown eyes and the other has blue eyes, the child is more likely to inherit brown eyes due to the dominant trait.
A child gets half of its DNA from each parent. This is why you can see characteristics of both parents in a child. --truckbroker-- More importantly, some traits are recessive in the parent. Or dominant in a dominant recessive trait. In which they may skip generations.
It depends on the two alleles the man carries; if he is carrying HH- it is a 100% chance, because HD is autosomal dominant. If his allele is Hh, it is a 50% chance.
Yes, it is possible for a child with blood type O to have a parent with AB blood type if the parent with AB blood type is heterozygous for the A and B alleles (AoBo). In this case, the parent could pass on the O allele to the child, resulting in the child having blood type O.
The child has a 50% chance of inheriting dimples. This is because dimples are a dominant trait, so if one parent is heterozygous for dimples, they will have one dominant allele for dimples to pass on to their child. The child would need to inherit this dominant allele from the heterozygous parent in order to express the trait.
