Both parents must be carriers of the recessive "albinism" gene. For people who do not have albinism, there is only a 1 in 100 chance that they are carriers of the recessive gene.

If both parents are normally pigmented, that is, neither one of them has albinism, but they both happen to be carriers of the recessive "albinism" gene. Then there is a 1 in 4 chance they will have a child with albinism each time they concieve.

One person in 17,000 in the U.S.A. has some type of albinism.

25%--genes are half of each parent. She's 50% black 50% white. Her child's skintone is based on how many genes of each pool she gives to her child. She'd end up with a lighter persuasion most likely. Another very interesting fact for example: a black male & a white woman can have a child that looks basically 100% white. The 'white' child can grow up & mate with another white child and a small possibility exsists that they could have a pretty dark skinned (basically black) mulatto child.

The photo below shows an albino offspring from a non-albino mother. If albinism is a recessive trait, what are the possible genotypes of the mother, the father, and the offspring?

It could be that the dad is albino but the mom isn’t.


What are the chances of having an albino baby if the mother is white with albino traits and the father black?

Hello, Ms or Mrs I am albino. I am a female. Your answer is, Not necessarily there is a 50/50 chance if you are without the jean which you might want to get your blood checked for it. I want you to know that albinisim isnt racisit there is Calcasian and Black albinos! So if you do have the jean but are not a albino then you and your male or female partner could have a albino baby or a child that is without albinisim.

Suppose a women with normal colored skin and having an albino mother married an albino man What would be the genotype of the woman?

The albino woman has to be AA. So the man has to be either AA or Aa in order to be normal. So if they have a baby and its albino it has to contain the AA gene. a a A Aa | Aa ---------------- A Aa | Aa doesn't work.. All outcomes are normal. a a A Aa | Aa ----------------- a AA | AA these combination outcomes 50% chance of an albino baby. This means the man is Aa Heterozygous dominant.. the mother is AA homozygous recessive.. and the baby is the same as the mother. AA...

If an albino and a non-albino gecko mate will they offspring be albino?

you have a 99% chance of the gecko coming out naturally colored. The albino gene for all animals is recessive. That means that both the mother and father would have to have the recessive gene and it would be blind luck for the recessive gene to be passed on by both parents. Best way to have an albino gecko is to breed 2 albino geckos. It is still not 100% that the babies will be albinos.
