A normal woman whose father was a hemophiliac marries a
normal man. What are the chances of hemophilia occurring in
their children?

Answer Posted / baba_mailme

A hemophilic father will always have daughter with carrier
of that gene if he marries a normal woman.When the daughter
(carrier of the gene) marries a normal man, the chances
their children will be hemophiliac is 50%. 1 daughter will
be normal and other will be the carrier of the gene, though
phenotypically both will be alike. and 1 son will be
hemophiliac and other will be normal

A blastomere was removed from an 8-cell human embryo, and its beta-globin gene was amplified by PCR. The beta-globin DNA was treated with an enzyme that cuts on either side of and within the normal allele (producing a small fragment), but not within the sickle cell allele (producing a large fragment). Electrophoresis of the treated DNA from the blastomere demonstrated the presence of both a large and small fragment derived from the beta-globin genes. How should you interpret this test?
