Fig. 1 Disease pedigree. Five generations I, II, III, IV, V are shown. Females are represented by circles, males by squares, dizygotic (non-identical) twins by
diagonal lines originating from the same point, Monozygotic (identical) twins by diagonal lines originating from the same point and joined symbols and deceased
by a diagonal line through the symbol. Filled symbols indicate that the individual displays the disease phenotype. Unfilled symbols indicate that the individual
does not display the disease phenotype. Carriers of the disease are not indicated. Information on disease status is not known for generation I and is omitted for
the individuals represented by a symbol with an asterisk. The person referred to in the opening paragraph above is V.1. Consider which pattern(s) of Mendelian
inheritance is (are) suggested by this pedigree and then answer questions 4-6
Question 6) Based on your deduced mode of inheritance and observations of the pedigree, which of the following statements about the most likely disease
status of individuals V.4 and V.5 (not given in Fig. 1) is CORRECT?
O a. It is expected that neither V.4 or V.5 would have the disease
O b. It is not possible to say what the disease status of V.4 or V.5 would be

O d. V.4 will not have the disease if his brother does not
