Problem

The B' allele, which causes baldness, is dominant to the normal B allele in males, but recessive in females because of the different hormonal environments.

Suppose a female, who has a bald father that is heterozygous for the baldness allele and a mother who does not carry the allele for baldness, marries a bald man with genotype B'B. The couple has a son. What is the probability that the son will be bald as an adult?
