- How is pedigree analysis used to determine whether a trait is inherited in an autosomal-dominant, autosomal-recessive, or X-linked pattern?arrow_forwardIs this pedigree dominant or recessive. Which best defines this pedigree Autosomal or sex-linked?arrow_forwardFor each of the following modes of inheritance, describe the features that will be exhibited in a pedigree in which the trait is present: autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, X-linked recessive, X-linked dominant, and Y-linked inheritance.arrow_forward
- Draw a family tree or pedigree showing the difference in inheritance between an autosomal dominant disorder and an autosomal recessive disorder.arrow_forwardWhat is a carrier of a genetic trait?arrow_forwardCould the trait indicated in the pedigree above be caused by an autosomal gene? Hint: consider each type of autosomal inheritance and see if it could explain the inheritance of the trait. a) Yes, an autosomal dominant gene could explain this trait. b) Yes, an autosomal recessive gene could explain this trait. c) No, an autosomal gene could not account for this pedigree. d) Yes, A and B are true.arrow_forward
- Describe the characteristics of a pedigree for an autosomal dominant and an autosomal recessive trait.arrow_forwardWhich genotype indicates a carrier of an autosomal recessive trait? bb BB Bbarrow_forwardHypophosphatemia is a dominant genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of phosphates in the blood. Assuming the other parent is free of the disorder, males with the disorder will pass it on to all their daughters, but not their sons. Females with the disorder will pass it on to approximately half of their children. Is this pattern of inheritance autosomal or sex-linked? Draw Punnett squares to show the inheritance pattern of the disorder in each of the two scenarios.arrow_forward
- Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive trait. A three-generation pedigree is shown below for a family that carries the mutant allele for cystic fibrosis. Note that carriers are not colored in to allow you to figure out their genotypes. Normal allele = F CF mutant allele = f What is the genotype of individual #13? A) ff B) FF C) Ff D) it is impossible to tellarrow_forwardIf both parents have an autosomal dominant trait, what can you say about their children? Explainarrow_forwardTwo affected daughters and two normal sons are born to an affected male and a normal female. Each of the affected daughters (and their normal husbands) gave birth to affected sons and daughters. Normal sons of the couple married normal women and had normal children. Which of the following is the most likely mode of inheritance for this trait?* Sex-linked recessive Sex-linked dominant Autosomal dominant Autosomal recessivearrow_forward
