- An allele responsible for Marfan syndrome Section 13.4 is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. What is the chance that a child will inherit the allele if one parent does not carry it and the other is heterozygous?The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?Albinism is an autosomal recessive condition characterized by absence of melanin pigment from the skin, eye and hair. Two carriers of albinism marry and plan to have FIVE children. Assume a 1:1 sex ratio. What is the probability that at least 3 children will be normal?
- Albinism is an autosomal (not sex-linked) recessive trait. A man and woman are both of normal pigmentation, but both have one parent who is albino (without melanin pigmentation). What is the probability that their first child will have albinism?Albinism in humans is autosomal and fully recessive to normal color. A couple, who are both normal, have a daughter who is albino and a son who is normal. What is the probability that their normal son is a carrier of the albinism gene?Albinism is an autosomal (not sex-linked) recessive trait. A man and woman are both of normal pigmentation and have one child out of three who is albino (without melanin pigmentation). What are the genotypes of the albino's parents? Both parents must be homozygous dominant. Both parents must be heterozygous. One parent must be homozygous dominant; the other parent must be heterozygous. One parent must be heterozygous; the other parent can be homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous. One parent must be homozygous for the recessive allele; the other parent can be homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous. O O O O O
- Albinism is an autosomal (not sex-linked) recessive trait. A man and woman are both of normal pigmentation and have one child out of three who is albino (without melanin pigmentation). What are the genotypes of the albino's parents? One parent must be homozygous for the recessive allele; the other parent can be homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous. Both parents must be homozygous dominant. One parent must be heterozygous; the other parent can be homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous. Both parents must be heterozygous. One parent must be homozygous dominant; the other parent must be heterozygous. O000Piebaldism is a skin condition that causes an infant to be born with white birthmarks due to a genetic mutation. It is an autosomal dominant trait. A woman with piebaldism married a man without it. They have three daughters, two of whom also have piebaldism. One of their piebald daughters married a man who also has piebaldism and they have two sons with piebaldism, one son without it and one daughter with it. Draw the pedigree for this family and fill in as many of their genotypes as you can.YOUR SISTER DIED FROM TAY-SACHS DISEASE, INHERITED AS A RECESSIVE ALLELE (t). you're married and planning to start your family. you're worried about the disease and decide to have genetic testing to see if you or your spouse is a carrier of the tay-sachs allele. the test results show that you're a carrier of the allele, but your spouse isn't. what is the probability that you and your spouse will have a child with tay-sachs disease? show your work.
- A young couple went to see a genetic counselor because each had a sibling with cystic fibrosis. (Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease, and neither member of the couple nor any of their four parents is affected.) What is the probability that the female of this couple is a carrier? What are the chances that their child will have cystic fibrosis? 3. What is the probability that their child will be a carrier of the cystic fibrosis disease allele?Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder and blood type is autosomal. If two healthy parents, one of which is blood type A and the other blood type B, produce a son who has hemophilia and is type O, what is the probability that their next child will be a son with hemophilia and blood type B? 1/2 3/16 1/4 1/8 1/16Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a disorder caused by a recessive allele. Two carrier individuals have progeny. If they have three children, what is the probability of having 2 affected children and one normal child?
