文字版解析如下：

答案：B

考点：

1. Pedigree Analysis

2. Applying Punnett Squares to Calculate Probabilities

解题思路：

1. Determine the genotype of the affected male in the third generation

2. Use a Punnett Square and cross the affected male with a carrier female

3. Calculate probability of son being affected with the disorder

解题步骤：

- Determine if the disorder is autosomal or sex-linked

o There is a disproportionate number of affected males vs. females. All of the individuals with the disorder (shaded symbols) are males. There are no affected females. This indicates a sex-linked disorder.

- Determine if the disorder is dominant or recessive

o The parents in generation I do not have the disorder, but 2 of their sons in generation II have the disorder. When affected individuals have unaffected parents, it indicates a recessive disorder.
