What is the probability that the dominant allele

Reference no: EM13117243

A woman expressing a dominant phenotype is heterozygous (Dd) at the locus.

Part A: What is the probability that the dominant allele carried by the woman will be inherited by a grandchild?

Part B: What is the probability that two grandchildren of the woman who are first cousins to one another will each inherit the dominant allele?
