Both parents carrying a copy of the Huntingtons allele means that the percent chance that the child does not inherit Huntingtons is 25% and is denoted as option A.What is Allele?This is referred to as the variant form of a gene and can be homozygous or heterozygous.We were told that both parents carry a copy of the Huntingtons allele which means that they are heterozygous for the trait and can be expressed as seen below:Hh × Hh = HH Hh Hh hhThis therefore means that the chance of them producing a child with Huntington’s disease is 3 in 4, or 75% while the chance of the child not inheriting it will be 100% - 75%b = 25%.Read more about Allele here https://brainly.com/question/3452155#SPJ1
