Question 3 ) Listen Becker muscular dystrophy is due to a mutation in the same gene that causes the more severe Duchenne muscular dystrophy. This is an X linked recessive condition that causes muscular weakness that begins and a later age and progresses more slowly than Duchenne muscular dystrophy which is often lethal by age 20. One of my former students had a father who had this condition. She did not have the condition. If she has children with a male who does not have the condition, what is the chance that any daughters she would have would have the condition? 100 % 75% O 50% O 25% 0%

Expert Solution
Step 1

Mendel uncovered the fundamental laws of heredity. His experiments demonstrated that the inheritance of specific traits in pea plants follows specific patterns, which became the foundation of modern genetics and led to the study of heredity.
