Question

use this punnett square as a tool to work out patterns of autosomal recessive inheritance. drag and drop an icon from the right for both parents, based on whether they are affected, unaffected, or carriers of a trait or disease. go to https://dnalc.cshl.edu/view/17001-punnett-square-blank.html drag and drop the uneffected genotype to dad, and the affected genotype to mom position. click the \mate\ button, and you will see that the genotype of all ______ offspring is ____. click the \offspring button, then click on one of the offspring. this is the ____ genotype. an ____ offspring does not have the trait/disease, but is a \healthy ____\ with one copy of the ______ gene (a) that may be passed on to the next generation. blank 1: blank 2: blank 3: blank 4: blank 5: blank 6:

Explanation:

• For autosomal recessive inheritance, the affected genotype is usually \(aa\) (homozygous recessive) and the unaffected (assuming it is homozygous dominant for a simple case) is \(AA\).
• When \(AA\) (unaffected, Dad) is crossed with \(aa\) (affected, Mom), using Punnett - square \(A\times a\) for each parent's gametes.
• The offspring genotype is determined by combining gametes.
• A carrier has one recessive allele.

Answer:

• Blank 1: \(F_1\) (first - generation)
• Blank 2: \(Aa\)
• Blank 3: \(Aa\)
• Blank 4: \(F_1\)
• Blank 5: carrier
• Blank 6: recessive
