4. Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes. This is NOT a sex-linked trait. Cross a brown-eyed colorblind male (whose mother had blue eyes) with a normal blue-eyed female (whose father was colorblind). a) What is the genotype of the male? b) What is the genotype of the female? c) What is the probability of getting offspring that are blue-eyed carrier females? (Remember that a carrier is a female that carries one copy of the sex-linked allele, but does not have the disease.) d) What is the probability of getting offspring that are blue-eyed? e) What is the probability of getting offspring that are blue-eyed colorblind males? f) What is the probability of getting offspring that are brown-eyed carrier females? g) What is the probability of getting offspring that are blue-eyed normal males? h) What is the probability of getting offspring that are colorblind?
