A normal man and a normal woman both having one of their parent albino, if get married then what is the probability of their child of being albino?
Options:
Answer:
B
Solution:
Albinism is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern that means both parents contribute a mutated gene for the person to have albinism. So, there is a chance that any of their children will have albinism. Then of the children will carry the mutated gene, but will not have albinism. The last possibility is to neither have albinism or carry the mutated gene, that's the other chance.
