Rickets is a condition in which the bones become soft. Children with rickets develop bone deformities. A lack of vitamin D, calcium, and phosphorus in the diet usually cause this condition. One form of rickets, called vitamin D-resistant rickets, is caused by the recessive trait on the X chromosome. A mother who is heterozygous for rickets marries a man who HAS rickets.
a. What chance do they have of having a daughter with rickets?
b. What chance do they have of having a daughter that is a carrier of rickets?
c. What chance do they have of having a son who isnormal?
d. What chance do they have of having a child with rickets?

b. What chance would of having a daughter who will be bald?
