    Ok, I'll do this one for you, you know how to draw a genetic diagram? Here, you'll need to draw two, one for the case that the genotype of the woman is he case where the genotype is

    Complete your diagram to find the possible outcomes of the offpring. If you don't understand, post back. :)

    Just FYI, these diagrams are called Punnett squares. A quick Google can turn up a lot of resources for them. I think you can use one to answer most of these questions, except for the one with the 3 colored hamsters, in which case I think you just need to apply the equation for Hardy-Weinberg population genetics.

    I'm sure the original poster's homework has long since been turned in... but maybe this will help someone in the future.

    Actually, I needed to read the question closer... Hardy-Weinberg doesn't come into play in any of the questions. They're all pretty straight forward Mendellian genetics questions.
