Suppose the gene ‘A’ stands for tall and gene ‘a’ stands for short, and ‘A’ is dominant over
‘a’. Suppose the parents are of genotype aa and Aa.
i) In a family like this what is the probability of having a short child?
ii) In a family like this if there are four children, what is the probability that two children
are tall and two children are short?
iii) If you survey a large number of such families having four children, what is the average
number of tall children to be expected in a family?
iv) If you survey 256 families of this type, each having four children, how many families
are expected to have all tall children?
