Look at the pedigree below and answer the following questions related to the human genetic trait depicted in this pedigree.  1.  Indicate whether the pattern of inheritance associated with this human trait is most likely to be (i) rare X-linked recessive, (ii) sex-influenced, or (iii) sex-limited.  You may assume that the gene is fully penetrant. Then, provide a specific reason that justifies your selection of this pattern of inheritance as the correct one, and also explain why each of the other two alternatives are not correct.  As part of your answer, include the phenotypic ratio, including the sex of the offspring, that you would expect to find in each of the three possible scenarios.

What is the approximate percentage chance that individual V.2, shown in the pedigree diagram below will have inherited the X- linked recessive allele shown to be carried by his great-great-grandmother? Note: only type the number, not the percentage symbol. Answer: The chance that individual V.2 shown in the pedigree below has inherited the X-linked recessive allele shown to be carried by his great-great grandmother is approximately Blank 1 percent. 노 ㅍ먹이 12 I 마일 메인 de 먹어 요 58 ㅁ + ܡܐ

58 A family has two children with an undiagnosed, very rare neurodevelopmental condition illustrated in the pedigree below. Neither parent is affected and there is no family history of this disorder. The following two questions relate to this pedigree. What is the most likely mode of inheritance for this condition? Select one alternative: Dominant O It is not inherited Recessive X-linked recessive

The next four questions are all related to this problem: Polydactyly (PD) is an autosomal dominant trait (polydactyly - P; wildtype - p). Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive trait (cystic fibrosis - f; wildtype - F). A PD woman, otherwise normal in phenotype, marries a healthy normal man. Their 4 children are: 1) normal, 2) PD, 3) CF, 4) CF + PD. You will walk through a series of steps to answer this question: What is the probability that their 5th child will have at least one of these conditions? Here is the first step: 1. What is the cross? (Hint: You can use the 4 existing children to determine the genotypes of the parents.) O PpFF (female) x ppFF (male) O PoFf (female) x ppft (male) O pof female) x PPFI (male) O PPFF Ifemale) x ppFf (male) 2. What is/are the target genotypes? O pof OP.F. O pott O P.M 3. What is the probability the child will have PD AND cystic fibrosis? Answer to two decimal places (eg. 0.88). 4. What is the probability that their 5th child will have at…

In human beings, the gene for red‑green colorblindness (r) is sex‑linked and recessive to its allele for normal vision (R), while the gene for freckles (F) is autosomal and dominant over its allele for nonfreckled (f).  A nonfreckled, normal‑visioned woman whose father was freckled and colorblind, marries a freckled, colorblind man whose mother was nonfreckled. What is the probability that the first child born to the couple will either be a freckled, colorblind boy or a non‑freckled, normal visioned girl or a non-freckled, normal visioned boy?   What is the probability that the first four children born to the couple will be freckled and normal visioned girls?

Some rare human genetic disorders have an inheritance pattern similar to the one seen in the pedigree below. I. 0O,0 II. IV. a.) How would you describe this mode of inheritance? b.) How would you explain the genetic nature of this rare disorder?

Examine the pedigree and answer the following questions; shaded individuals show the trait; genotypes are all unknown. The individual marked with the question mark is of an unknown genotype but lacks the trait. A. What mode of inheritance is the most likely, autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant? State your rationale for full credit. B. What is the genotype of the individual designated with the question mark? (Heterozygous, homozygous, or unknown). C. What are the genotypes of the parents in generation I? (Heterozygous, homozygous, or unknown). D. What are the genotypes of the three children of generation IV? (Heterozygous, homozygous, or unknown).
