You are a genetic counselor, and several members of the family whose pedigree for an inherited disorder is depicted in Genetic Analysis 17.2 consult with you about the probability that their progeny may be afflicted.

40 Below is a pedigree of a family, some of whom have the autosomal dominant condition Huntington's disease. Affected individuals are indicated by a dark square or circle. The male in generation I (indicated by the arrow) is heterozygous for the Huntington's disease mutation. The following two questions relate to this pedigree. Generation II II If H represents the disease allele, and h the wild type allele, what is the genotype of the individual indicated by the *? Select one alternative: O hh O Hh O hH O HH
1-Gigantism is being traced in a family through a pedigree. Its mode of inheritance is thought to be autosomal recessive. You examine the pedigree and decide that the mode of inheritance is not correct. What is the correct mode of inheritance? 2-Provide 2 pieces of evidence for the mode of inheritance selected for Gigantism. (i.e.- Individual 45 is afflicted and passed it on to all of her offspring, indicating that it is dominant. Or there is a gendered pattern of inheritance seen when Individual 99 passed it on to only his female offspring.)
