Could someone please help me with this grade 11 bio dihybrid cross problem in detail and how to solve this question, using a strategy?
Assume that curly hair (C) is dominant to straight hair. Albinism (P ) is recessive to normal skin pigmentation. A woman who is heterozygous for curly hair and albinism has a child. The father is homozygous dominant for curly hair and has albinism.
(a) Determine the possible phenotypes for their child. (double-crossing, Puneet square)
(b) Calculate the four different probabilities of a child being
both a male and of each phenotype.
(c) What is the probability that the child will express
albinism and have curly hair like his father?
