Since I've asked a question in chemistry, for the benefit of those with biology majors, I'd go in that direction.

A man with a dominant gene for albinism marries a woman with a recessive gene for same character. If they were to give birth to 20 children, how many of them are likely to be dominant albinos?

Is it possible that all children are albinos?

It's possible that all will be albinos if the dominant gene prevails but on equal grounds there's a 5050 chance.. I.e 50% will have dominant and 25% recessive while 25% will have little or no traits of the gene at all

Pls get a bank with many branches, I have not seen union bank for over a year now.

Hey, hope u ain't patronising with the young man's emotions and time. U can assuage this process by a simple bank transfer using your mobile device or quickTeller...we no spastics to these things. Enough said

5 of them
Yes its possible

Since the dominant gene dominates the recessive gene, all the children are likely to be dominant albino

Yes it is possible for all the kids to be albinos

15 children are likely to be dominant albinos

It's not possible that all the children will be albino

If they give birth to 20 children, 10 will be dominant albinos
5 will be recessive
5 might not be albinos

Thanks boss... The issue has been solved.

Thanks for your concern, much love.

U don collect?

They would all have dominant albino gene

It's not possible for all the children to be albino though it will be in their gene.

the possibility of them being albinos is 50:50. all of them can still be albinis

AstonM:
No, 0/20 chance

or better still, ALMOST ZERO chance outta 20 children

I have stated in the beginning on this thread that I won't do such. I also stated it clearly that banks with many branches will be preferred to ease the job for the guy I will send to the bank as I'm not free to go myself.

Ifelove1:
10
Yes

This is the right answer, and it comes first.

Besides this only a few more respondents got it right.

50% of the offspring have a "chance" to show dominant character for albinism and in a population of 20, that amounts to 10.

And yes, for every individual birth, there's a chance, even if it were 25%, that we get a dominant albino. Therefore, it is true that ALL 20 offerings can be albinos.

It is not possible that all will be albinos
Albinism is a genetic condition which is mostly caused due to recessive gene which means that a child receives one abnormal gene from each of the parent. The parents have both a abnormal gene and a fully functioning gene. While the fully functioning gene always dominates the abnormal gene, the parents never suffer from albinism. When both the parents carry a abnormal (recessive) gene, on mating, there is a 25% chance that the child will suffer from albinism, 50% chance that he will not suffer from albinism but will be a carrier of the abnormal gene and 25% chance that he will neither be a carrier nor will suffer from albinism.

I mean all can be dirminant albino. bcs the chance is equal

veilkonsultant:
10 children.
yes. very possible

a random pairing situation can theoretically occur to favour albinism everytime

Nazareth10:

.
I mean all can be dominant albinos as the chances for each us equal
