- Hereditary hemochromatosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that causes the body to absorb too much iron from the diet. This excess iron is stored in the body's tissues and organs, particularly the skin, heart, liver, pancreas, and joints. Because humans cannot increase the excretion of iron, excess iron can overload and eventually damage tissues and organs. A. Symptoms of hereditary hemochromatosis include fatigue, joint pain, arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, skin discoloration, delayed puberty in males, and premature menopause in women. All of these symptoms result a single mutation in a specific gene. Name and define this genetic phenomenon and explain how it relates to this specific genetic situation described above.arrow_forwarda male and a female are each heterozygous for both Cystic Fibrosis and Phenylketonurea, both of which are autosomal recessive disorders.

The judge ruled in favor of the mother and ordered Mr. Wensley to pay child support costs of the child. Was the judge correct in his decision based on blood typing evidence? Explain why or why not. Show any Punnett squares to support your answer.arrow_forwardWhen we say that a woman is a carrier for a genetic disease or disorder it means that a. she can pass the gene only to male children b. she has 1 gene, but not the disorder c. she can pass the gene only to female children d. she has 2 genes for the disorderarrow_forwardConsanguinity is having offspring together who are blood-related.
