    Albinism is a recessive trait so both parents must have the recessive allele for it to occur. Let A be the dominant allele and a be the albinism allele.

    Parents: Aa x Aa (considering neither were albino)

    Children possible genotypes: AA, Aa, Aa, aa

    Possibility of a child being a carrier: 50%
