Answer:

The probability that this couple will have a child with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is 50/50

Step-by-step explanation:

This Punnett square shows our woman as "xx" and our man at "xy". Knowing this, we can now look back at the Punnett square's results. Out of the four squares, two of them are fill with the woman's carried condition, but the other two are also filled with the man's. So, that leaves us with a 50 percent chance that their child will have DMD.

Hope this helped!
