which mode of inheritance does this trait show (autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, X-linked recessive, X-linked dominant, Y-linked, or mitochondrial).And why? This image is a pedigree chart used to track the inheritance of traits or genetic conditions through generations. The diagram consists of various shapes representing individuals across different generations:1. **Symbols:** - Circles represent females. - Squares represent males. - Filled symbols (black) indicate individuals who express the trait in question. - Unfilled symbols (white) indicate individuals who do not express the trait.2. **Generations:** - The chart is organized into three generations. - Each level (row) of the chart represents a different generation.3. **Connections:** - Horizontal lines connecting a male and female represent a mating or partnership. - Vertical lines extending below a couple connect to their offspring.4. **Detailed Breakdown:** - **First Generation:** Consists of one male (symbol 1, filled) and one female (symbol 2, unfilled). They are the parents of the second generation. - **Second Generation:** Contains five individuals (symbols 3 to 7). - Individuals 3 and 4 are male, both exhibit the trait. - Individual 5 is male, does not exhibit the trait. - Individual 6 is female, does not exhibit the trait. - Individual 7 is male, exhibits the trait, possibly linked with individual 6. - **Third Generation:** Consists of four individuals (symbols 8 to 11), offspring of individuals 6 and 7. - Individuals 8 and 11 are male and exhibit the trait. - Individuals 9 and 10 are male and do not exhibit the trait. This pedigree chart is a tool for understanding genetic inheritance patterns within a family.

The given image is of a pedigree chart. Squares represent males and circles represent females. Black represents diseased condition and white represents normal or carrier genotype. In this question, it is required to find the appropriate inheritance from the chart.The inheritance shown in the pedigree is autosomal recessive. Explanation: The inheritance is not Y-linked because all the males are not effected and some of the females are effected. The inheritance is not X-linked because all the males are not effected. The inheritance is not mitochondrial because mitochondria is received from the mother. and in the first generation, all the children are not diseased even though the mother is diseased. Thus the inheritance is autosomal. If the inheritance is autosomal dominant, presence of one defective allele will cause the disease. But in case of first generation normal children, even after receiving a defective gene from one parent, they are not diseased. Hence, the inheritance is autosomal recessive.
