If the image isn’t visible, you can download the PDF file: Quiz 1 -Pedigree FRQ picture.pdf a) On this pedigree, label the genotypes for individuals 1-11. Use correct genotype notation. For individuals whose genotypes are certain, write the specific genotype. If a genotype is uncertain, indicate all possible genotypes or use a dash (–) to represent unknown alleles. (5 points; 0.5 point deducted for each error or omission, until all points are deducted) Individual 1: __________ Individual 2: __________ Individual 3: __________ Individual 4: __________ Individual 5: __________ Individual 6: __________ Individual 7: __________ Individual 8: __________ Individual 9: __________ Individual 10: __________ Individual 11: __________ b) How can you tell whether this trait is dominant or recessive? Explain your reasoning. (2 points)   c) Is this trait/gene X-linked? How do you know? (2 points)   d) Based on your analysis, write your final conclusion (1 point): This trait follows ___________________ inheritance. (Choose from: autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked recessive.)
