Determine the mode of inheritance: Homozygous recessive die from fatal disorder, when a specific enzyme activity is absent. Heterozygous exhibit wild type phenotype but have intermediate level of gene expression resulting in 1/2 of the wild type enzyme activity when compared to Homozygous normal non-carriers. Based on the levels of gene expression ALONE, the mode of inheritance is?
