8. Mr. Krabbs and his wife recently bad a Lil' Krabby, but it has not been a happy occasion for them. Mrs.
Krabbs has been upset since she first saw her new baby who had short eyeballs. She claims that the hospital
goofed and mixed up her baby with someone else's baby. Mr. Krabbs is homozygous for his tall eyeballs, while
his wife is heterozygous for her tall eyeballs. Some members of her family have short eyes, which is the
recessive trait. Create a Punnett square using T for the dominant gene and t for the recessive one.
A. List the possible genotypes and phenotypes for their children.
B. Did the hospital make a mistake? Explain your answer.

Had this exact same question about 2 or 3 months ago.

1.) TT- 2 Tt-2 tt-0

2.) Yes because it is impossible for their baby to have short eyes because the short eyes trait (tt) is recessive, and using the Punnett Square, it shows that there is no way for them to have a baby with the short eyes trait.

Your Welcome

the father in the first generation probably had the recessive colorblind trait in his x chromosome. if he and his wife both had the colorblind trait, even if she had 1 recessive and 1 dominant, then that trait would be passed on to their kids.

(since you didn't attach the family tree this is just an assumption)

did u get the answer? /? ? / me
