a). Genotype and Phenotype in hair
HH - curly hair
Hh - wavy hair
Hh - straight hair

Wavy Haired woman (Hh)

H h

H HH Hh
Curly Hair Wavy Hair
Curly Haired man
(HH) H HH Hh
Curly Hair Curly Hair

b). There is no probability or 0% probability of their child having straight hair.

c). There is a 50% probability of their child having wavy hair.

d). There is a 50% probability of their next child having wavy hair because the probability will
not change for each child in that generation so the probability of having wavy hair will remain the
same as the first child.

3.
a). For ABO genotypes and phenotypes are
IAIA or IAi - Type A
IBIB or IBi - Type B
IAIB - Type AB
ii - Type O

Type AB female (IAIB)

IA IB

Type A male IA IAIA IAIB


(IAi) Type A Type AB

i IAi IBi
Type A Type B
b). There is ½ or 50% probability of Type A offspring.

c). There is ¼ or 25% probability of Type B offspring.

d). There is ¼ or 25% probability of Type AB offspring.

e) There is no or 0% probability of a Type O offspring.

4.
a). For 3:1 ratio in F1 progeny - Bb & Bb

b). For 1:1 ratio in F1 progeny - Bb & bb

c).Yes, the data of the childrens’ phenotypic ratio can be used to get a conclusion about the
parents’ genotype as we can put up that data in a Punnett square and determine the parents’
genotype.
