The chance of the son to be affected of thalassemia will be 25%.

Explanation:

  • Thalassemia is a genetic diseases.
  • Its the disease where the person has the mutated gene of beta chain in the chromosome 11 of the affected person.
  • The mutated gene is recessive, so the person having mutated gene in 1 chromosome is a carrier.
  • The father is thalassemic whereas the mother is normal.
  • So the son becomes a carrier by character.
  • So if the carrier son marries a carrier daughter and the son is produced from this couple, then the chance of the grandson being thalassemic is 25%.
