[2025-10-02T04:47:07.663173] [PI reasoning] **Deciding genetic answers**

I need to figure out the correct answer regarding a parent described as homozygous, likely for a recessive gene. If one parent is homozygous recessive (aa) and the other is heterozygous (Aa), the offspring would be 50% affected (aa) and 50% carriers (Aa). So, the answer is C, and no extensive research is needed. However, it might be good to have a citation from a reliable genetics source, like a textbook or article about Punnett squares. A quick search could help!
