In humans, the absence of taste buds depends on a recessive sex-linked gene. In the family, the father and son have this anomaly, and the mother is healthy. What is the probability that the daughter will inherit the above trait from the father?

If the gene responsible for the absence of taste buds is sex-linked and only the father and son are sick, and the mother is healthy, then this gene is linked to the Y chromosome. And since the daughter is determined by the presence of two XX chromosomes with which this gene is not linked, then when one of the X chromosomes is received from the father, the daughter will not inherit the sign of the absence of taste buds.

Answer: the probability of inheriting a gene for the absence of taste buds from the father in a daughter is 0%.
