What is the probability that they will have a

25%
Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive trait.
Do the cross for a father with
hemophilia and a mother who is normal.
See Mrs. Schied for answer
What is the probability that they will have a
girl with hemophilia?
 0%

child who is a carrier of the gene?
 50%
How many carriers are there

 4
How many females have the
trait?
 1
Is this pedigree sex-linked?
Explain how you know.
 This pedigree could be
sexlinked because there are
no males carriers. In sex
linked pedigrees, males
cannot be carriers because
the Y does not carry an
allele.

show?
A. A female with down’s
syndrome
B. A male with down’s
syndrome.
C. A normal male
D. A normal female
 D
 A change in the chromosomes
can cause a genetic disorder.
