• A)Pr[B/A]=0
• B)Pr[B/A]=0.75
• C)Pr[B/A]=1
• D)Pr[B/A]=0.5

Definitions:

Polygenic

A term describing a trait or characteristic that is influenced by more than one gene, often resulting in a continuous range of possible phenotypes.

Codominant

A genetic scenario where two different alleles of a gene are both fully expressed in a heterozygous individual, leading to a phenotype that is a mixture or combination of both alleles.

Recessive

A genetic term referring to traits that are expressed only when two copies of a gene, one from each parent, are present.

Dominant

Refers to a trait, allele, or characteristic that overpowers or is more likely to be expressed than another in genetic inheritance.
