Respuesta :
When crossing a woman -who is heter0zyg0us for freckles and shape of eyebrows- with a man -who is h0m0zyg0us recessive for both traits-, the likelihood of their child to have freckles and separate eyebrows is 1/4 = 25%.
-------------------------------------------
Available data:
- Two diallelic genes ⇒ One of them codes for freckles and the other one for the shape of the eyebrows.
- Freckles ⇒ Dominant allele F ⇒ Codes for freckles.
⇒ Recessive allele f ⇒ No freckles.
- Eyebrows shape ⇒ Dominant allele E⇒Codes for separate eyebrows.
⇒ Recessive allele e ⇒ Codes for joined eyebrows.
- Woman ⇒ Heter0zyg0us for both genes. She has freckles and separate eyebrows.
- Man ⇒ H0m0zyg0us recessive for both traits. He does not have freckles, but he has eyebrows closed.

F1) Genotype:
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will be heter0zyg0us for both traits, FfEe
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will be heter0zyg0us for freckles, but h0m0zyg0us recessive for eyebrow trait, Ffee
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will be heter0zyg0us for eyebrow trait, but h0m0zyg0us recessive for freckles trait, ffEe
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will be h0m0zyg0us recessive for both traits, ffee.
Phenotype:
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will have freckles AND separate eyebrows, FfEe
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will have freckles AND closed eyebrows, Ffee
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will not have freckles AND will have separate eyebrows, ffEe
- 4/16 = 1/4 = 25% of the progeny will not have freckles AND will have closed eyebrows, ffee
