Show the punnett square. The disease
cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease governed by a single gene.
Only individual homozygous recessive are affected, whereas
heterozygous individuals are unaffected carriers. The disease
causes difficulty breathing due to the buildup of mucous in the
lungs. Suppose two heterozygous parents have five offspring. What
is the probability that two of the five offspring will by affected
with the disease? Please make the solutions complete
and understandable
Follow up question What would be the
probability that the couple’s first child is affected and the next
four children are unaffected? Would you use the product rule or the
binomial expansion formula to determine this? Please
make the solutions complete and understandable
