- Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits a. What pattern of inheritance is suggested by the following pedigree? b. For genotype assignment, assume that the pedigree is for an autosomal dominant trait and that the affected male in the first generation is heterozygous. Assign genotypes to all other individuals in the pedigree.arrow_forwardAnalysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits As a genetic counselor investigating a genetic disorder in a family, you are able to collect a four-generation pedigree that details the inheritance of the disorder in question. Analyze the information in the pedigree to determine whether the trait is inherited as: a. autosomal dominant b. autosomal recessive c. X-linked dominant d. X-linked recessive e. Y-linkedarrow_forwardAnalysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits The father of 12 children begins to show symptoms of Huntington disease. a. What is the probability that Sam, the mans second-oldest son (II-2), will suffer from the disease if he lives a normal life span? (Sams mother and her ancestors do not have the disease.) b. Can you infer anything about the presence of the disease in Sams paternal grandparents?arrow_forward
- Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits Suppose a couple, both phenotypically normal, have two children: one unaffected daughter and one son affected with a genetic disorder. The phenotype ratio is 1:1, making it difficult to determine whether the trait is autosomal or X-linked. With your knowledge of genetics, what are the genotypes of the parents and children in the autosomal case? In the X-linked case?arrow_forwardAnalysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits Describe the phenotype and primary gene or protein defect of the X-linked recessive disease muscular dystrophy.arrow_forwardAnalysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits In the following pedigree, assume that the father of the proband is homozygous for a rare trait. What pattern of inheritance is consistent with this pedigree? In particular, explain the phenotype of the proband.arrow_forward
- Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits Using the following pedigree, deduce a compatible pattern of inheritance. Identify the genotype of the individual in question.arrow_forwardAnalysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits The following is a pedigree for a common genetic trait.

The ability to taste the chemical phenylthiocarbamideis an autosomal dominant phenotype, and the inabilityto taste it is recessive. If a taster woman with a nontasterfather marries a taster man who in a previous marriagehad a nontaster daughter, what is the probability thattheir first child will be(1) A nontaster girl(2) A taster girl(3) A taster boyb. What is the probability that their first two childrenwill be tasters of either sex?arrow_forward
