Mistakes in assigned problems. • Chapter 2, problem 23c, brief answer section in book says all others could be AA or Aa, but that’s wrong because II-1, II-2, and II-3 must also be carriers. • Chapter 2, problem 29b, brief answer section in book is wrong, solution manual correct. Answer is [(0.9)(0.5) + (0.1)(2/3)] X [(0.9)(0.5) + (0.1)(2/3)] X 1/4 = 0.0667. • Chapter 3, problem 3, brief answer section in book is ambiguous. Answer is cr cw X cr cw gives 1/2 cr cw yellow; 1/4 cr cr red; 1/4 cw cw white. • Chapter 3, Problem Number 8, part (a), mistake in the solutions manual. The answer states that "The only male fitting these requirements is male c whose phenotype is B,MN,Rh+". The answer should read "The only male fitting these requirements is male d, whose phenotype is B, MN, Rh+". • Chapter 4, problem 27, III-1 must be XCB Xcb, since she must have inherited Xcb from her affected father.
