In humans, the mic2 gene (involved in antibody production) is found on sex chromosomes and has pseudoautosomal inheritance. If a female that is a mic2a is mated to a phenotypically mic2b male then what would be resulting ratios of the offspring? (note; the mic2a and 2b alleles are codominant)

Question
In humans, the mic2 gene (involved in antibody production) is found on sex chromosomes and has pseudoautosomal
inheritance. If a female that is a mic2a is mated to a phenotypically mic2b male then what would be resulting ratios of the
offspring? (note; the mic2a and 2b alleles are codominant)
O 50% mic2a and 50% mic2b for both sexes
O 100% mic2a/2b for both males and females
O all females are mic2a/2b whereas males are all mic2a
all females are mic2b whereas males are all mic2a
