More genetics. In problem 33, we learned that for some diseases, such as sickle cell anemia, an individual will get the disease only if he/she receives both recessive alleles. This is not always the case. For example, Huntington's disease only requires one dominant gene for an individual to contract the disease. Suppose that a husband & wife, who both have a dominant Huntington's disease allele (S) and a normal recessive allele (s), decide to have a child.
A- List the possible genotypes of their offspring.
B- What is the probability that the offspring will not have Huntington's disease? In other words, what is the probability that the offspring will have genotype ss? Interpret this probability.
