. Determine the genotypes of all individuals discussed in each scenario in addition to yours, your partners’, and your unborn child. For example, “You remember your partner telling you that their father died at an early age of Huntington’s disease.” In this case you would need to determine your partner’s father’s genotype. b. Determine what probability your unborn child will inherit the disorder (be sure to include a Punnett square)? i. If you are unable to determine your child’s chance of inheriting the disorder what additional information do you require? c. Are you worried about your or your partner’s risk of inheriting the disorder (this is particularly a concern for Huntington’s disease and Marfan Syndrome)?
