Hematologists and hematopathologists are medical professionals who specialize in illnesses of the blood and its components.

Question

What would be the phenotypes for each of the following genotypes for Huntington’s Disease?

a. Hh =

b. hh =

Definition Definition Observable physical traits or characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genetic makeup (genotype) as well as environmental factors. These traits can include anything from eye color or height to behavior or disease susceptibility. Understanding an organism's phenotype is important in fields such as genetics, medicine, and ecology.
