Answer / 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

disease and this disease is an X linked recessive
disease.Therefore it is transferred from grandfather to
grandson.Both parents of the children are not affect so that
is the only possibility.

The dominant gene (G) produces green hair in mermaids and the recessive gene (g) produces blue hair. Webbed fingers are due to the dominant gene (F) and normal fingers are recessive (f).
