Math Problem Statement
Each of two parents has the genotype blond divided by brown, which consists of the pair of alleles that determine hair color, and each parent contributes one of those alleles to a child. Assume that if the child has at least one blond allele, that color will dominate and the child's hair color will be blond. a. List the different possible outcomes. Assume that these outcomes are equally likely. b. What is the probability that a child of these parents will have the brown divided by brown genotype? c. What is the probability that the child will have blond hair color? Question content area bottom Part 1 a. List the possible outcomes.
