Question

Alkaptonuria is inherited as an autosomal recessive disease. Fill in the genotypes of the individuals in the pedigree below using “A” for the allele associated with the dominant phenotype and “a” for the allele associated with the recessive phenotype. Filled symbols indicate individuals with alkaptonuria. You should assume that the disease is completely penetrant; that is, all individuals with a genotype corresponding to a disease phenotype will show the disease.
