a woman without hemophilia marries a man with hemophilia. they have a daughter with hemophilia. what is the genotype of the mother and father
Answers
Genotype of mother is Pp in heterozygous condition...Where the gene with haemophilia is suppressed
Genotype of father is pp in homozygous condition ...Where haemophilia is the dominant or expressed...
Hint: haemophilia...Is p
And non haemophilia is P
Answer:
X^H X^h for the mother and X^h Y for the father
Explanation:
since the said that both of them got married and produced a daughter with hemophilia so the only explanation to that is that the mother will be heterozygous dominant for hemophilia which is a carrier for it and also the said that the father has hemophilia also so when the parents mate they will have 50% chance among all of their offspring to be hemophilic and 50% of the females to be also hemohpilic (X^h X^h). It is not reasonable for the mother to be normal and having a hemophilic daughter so she must be a carrier for the disease.
