Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a recessively inherited disorder. A father is a suffer of CF, while the mother is normal and not a carrier. What is the chance their child will be a carrier of CF? Give your answer as a percentage.

First write a key for the alleles. (normal Allele=T. CF allele=t) If the mother is normal= TT Father is a suffer =tt. Then Draw a punnet diagram for the child Write a key for the punnet diagram. TT-normal. Tt-Carrier. tt-CF suffer This should show the chance of having a carrier child is 100%
