Calculate the likelihood of any further children produced by E and her # having sickle cell anemia. iii. Male $ is healthy but of unknown genotype. Calculate the likelihood of any children produced with female D having sickle cell anemia. Show all working. 7. Some traits are autosomal whereas others are carried on sex chromosomes. a. Distinguish between autosomes and sex chromosomes. b. Annotate the diagram to distinguish between the X and Y chromosomes. c. Outline the role of the SRY gene on the Y chromosome. d. Outline how non-disjunction can lead to gender-related chromosome abnormalities.

Some inherited disorders are associated with gender. a. Define sex-linkage. b. State two examples of sex-linked genetic disorders. c. Explain why sex-linked disorders are more common in males than females. d. Explain why human females can be homozygous or heterozygous for sex-linked genes, where males cannot. e. The allele for colour blindness (n) is recessive to the allele for normal vision (N). This gene is carried in a non-homologous region on the X chromosome. Complete the table below to show the genotypes and phenotypes of individuals with regard to colour blindness. Female N X X Normal Male N Affected Not possible! Why? Carrier f. In the space below, complete a punnet grid to show a cross between a normal male and a carrier female. What is the expected ratio of phenotypes?
