PUNNETT SQUARE PRACTICE ACTIVITY

Directions: Create a Punnett square to predict the genotype , phenotype for the following sex –
linked problems.

1. A man with hemophilia marries a woman who does not have a hemophilia. What is the
possible phenotype of their offspring?

2. A woman with down syndrome married a man who does not manifest the syndrome but a
carrier. What type of offspring would they expect?

3. If a colorblind woman married a man with normal color vision and had kids, what are the
chances of their sons being colorblind? What are the chances of their daughter being carrier?

4. A normal woman who is a carrier for hemophilia marries a normal man, what type of offspring
