Is a calico female: X^B Y is a black male given birth to 4 calico female kittens and 2 black male kittens. a. What is the genotype and phenotype of the father b. What phenotypes & phenotypic progeny ratios are predicted if females and males in the litter were crossed to one another? Recall that in X-linkage you separate sexes first and then give the ratio within the sex. c. Can there be a calico male? Briefly explain. A blue-eyed woman (Esmerelda) with normal skin pigmentation had an affair with two different men (Gerald and Ashburton) over a series of years. She had children during that time but did not know which man was the father. Esmerelda died tragically in a car accident and the children, ages ranging from 2-8, need to be with their proper father, if it can be determined. Gerald has brown eyes and was albino skin: Ashburton has blue eyes and normal skin pigmentation. Not wanting to go through the expense of DNA analysis, determine parentage and genotypes through genetics. Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes and normal skin pigmentation is dominant over albino skin. Both of Gerald’s mother and father had albino skin. No evidence of albino skin was every seen in Ashburton’s mother or father or any of their siblings, so it was concluded that there was no albino skin present in Ashburton’s background. Eulalia blue-eyed girl with albino skin Osborne blue-eyed boy with normal skin Wilhelmina brown-eyed girl with normal skin Zephyrine brown-eyed girl with albino skin a. Determine the paternity of each these children, if possible. b. Give the genotypes of each of the parents and the offspring in question
