HELP on Dihybrid punnett square!!!I need help to figure out why men get the Hemophilia disease more than women!!! heres the question..... 1. A male (XY) with a healthy dominant clotting gene marries a woman (XX) that is heterozygous for clotting genes. Using the key, complete the punnett square to determine the outcome of their children. H-healthy clotting gene, dominant h-unhealthy non-clotting mutant gene, recessive O- nothing because hemophilia is only on the female (X) chromosome I need to figure out the parent. Then i need to fill in the DIHYBRID chart
Re: HELP on Dihybrid punnett square!!!
men have one X and one Y chromosome. That means they are different and cannot hold each others place. Women have 2 X chromosomes. that means there are 2 facts called 'recessive' and 'dominant'. Hemophilia is recessive. so if one of the X chromosomes carries hemophilia, that is not seen in the fenotype of the woman. But if a man has a X chromosome that carries hemophilia, it can seen in the phenotype. Those couple may have children like that: (couldnt figure out your key, this one may be useful.) X(h): hemophilia X: normal X one carrier female ---> X(h)X one normal female---> X X one hemophiliac male--> X(h)Y one normal male-------->X Y It matters not how strait the gate
How charged with punishment the scroll I am the Master of my fate I am the Captain of my soul.
ThanksWhen you did the XHYO and XHXh, wouldn't the starting parents be XYHO and XXHh? and then i have to foil it right?
