1) If an AaBBCcdd male ma of ridge-producing genes possible in one of their children?
b. What would be the TRC for this child if it is a male? A female?
c. If this child is a male, will he have a higher or lower TRC than the parent with the higher ridge count?
d. What is the minimum number of ridge-producing genes possible in a child of this couple?
e. If this child were a female, would she have a higher or lower TRC than the parent with the lower ridge count? Explain.
2) If an AaBBCcdd male were to mate with an AABbCcDd female:
a. What is the minimum number of active alleles possible in a child this couple could produce?
b. What would be the probability of producing a child with the minimum number of active alleles? Show your calculations.
c. What would be the TRC for this child if it were male? Female?
