You are interested in a new type of autosomal dominant mutation that gives purple eyes in Drosophila. You have a true-breeding purple-eyed line carrying a mutation that you call pr-1. You have isolated a second purple-eyed mutation that you call pr-2, which you have established in a true-breeding line that also carries a recessive marker st, which gives stubby legs. You cross a fly from the pr-1 line to a fly from the st, pr-2 line producing F1 females which you then cross to males from a true breeding st line (normal eyes). From this cross, 1000 progeny flies can be categorized into four different phenotypic classes:

Retinoblastoma usually occurs as a sporadic event but in around 10% of cases there is a positive family history due to autosomal dominant inheritance. In these families the penetrance is approximately 80% (= 0.8). A woman with retinoblastoma, whose father and grandfather were also affected, has an unaffected partner with no relevant family history. Which of the following is correct regarding their children?
