Has anyone ever seen this/ does anyone happen to have the solution?

Its a 10 point extra credit for my genetics course thats about to be complete and it would def ensure 100 % that i get an A for the course.. figured I'd ask for some input.. any ideas on the pedigree?

Its been a while since I was last on here its good to be back.

Much respect
 
This is a very interesting riddle. I'm trying to figure it out, and I am getting close, but I don't know how to draw one part of the family. It seems like The mother's father had children with the lady (these are the White Children). But how to draw that part is tricky.
 
i do not agree on searching for answers like this. It is like asking others to write ur homework for you.

but the question itself is not too difficult. A hint i can give you is that the old man was married more than twice. And there's no blood relationship between the old man and the young woman.

Oh really? Then a measily little Extra credit assignment would make or break your 99 right? Do your own work

The real riddle is figuring out how to pronounce "Nijmegen"
Click to expand...

The Dutch "ij" is treated as one letter, equivalent to the vowel "y" and, in this case, pronounced as a diphthong combining "eh" as in "set" and "ee" as in seen."

The first "e" is pronounced as the "ay" in "say."

The Dutch "g" is a guttural "ch."

The second "e" is the same as an English schwa.

Emphasis is on the first syllable.

Oh shut up, nobody wants to do your homework for you. At least the other posts make this stupid thread amusing.
 
Wow. You beat the D-Rays. Go you. You rule.

Watch out for the rest of this series with the Royals. And then the Orioles. Rough time.

Go Sox 🙂

Yes you and the entire useless city of Boston keep thinking that. Now that you've openly declared your hatred for the Yankees, no one's gonna do your homework for you.
 
Historically August and September (and October) are horrible months for the Bosux and great months for the Yanks. So you better watch out boy.

God I hope we get that 6 game (2 series) SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP this year.

Please tell me, I looked at it at work for a few minutes and couldn't quite get it.

All I can come up with is that the old man married a woman who already had a daughter by another man (the young woman's mother). He then had her two brothers. He dumped her ass, then married a woman that had a son by another man (the woman's father). Then had his two brothers. The daughter and son get married and have the young woman. The old man then dumps the young woman's grandmother and marries the young woman. Then they have the two little white boys. That would work, right?
 
well i did research in the Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome and I crossed the Nijmegen bridge while playing Medal of Honor ;-)
