3 points Save Answe NOTE: This is the same figure that was used in the previous questions. As stated before, the two pedigrees in the figure show the occurrence of the same autosomal recessive abnormality. A filled symbol = abnormal. If individuals II-2 and 11-3 have a child, what is the probability that it would be abnormal (aa)? Hint: To have an affected child, both of these normal-appearing individuals would need to be carriers (Aa). In question 2, you figured out the probability of Il-2 being a carrier. In question 3, you figured out the probability of Il-3 being a carrier. Now, use a Punnet square and the product rule to figure out the probability that they will have an affected child (aa) IF 11-3 is a carrier.
