the fetus is homozygous for PKU and therefore cannot metabolize phenylalanine.
b. the fetus is usually homozygous dominant and therefore has PKU.
c. the mother is heterozygous for PKU and therefore cannot metabolize phenylalanine.
d. the mother is homozygous dominant for PKU and cannot metabolize phenylalanine.
e. the mother is homozygous recessive for PKU and cannot metabolize phenylalanine.
