Autosomal dominant X linked dominant Autosomal recessive X linked recessivearrow_forwardOne of your patients, a six-year-old girl who suffers from Sickle cell anemia, an inherited blood disorder in which red blood cells are abnormally shaped and fragile, leading to a short supply of red blood cells. These abnormal cells can also get stuck in small vessels, which prevent blood flow, leading to fatigue, pain and other severe complications. Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disorder. Neither of your patient's parents has sickle cell anemia. What is the most likely genotype of her parents?

- Genetic Inheritance Patterms Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) can be autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, or x-linked. Apparently the dominant forms are often less severe. Eric's form of RP is Usher's Syndrome, which is an autosomal recessive inheritance (i.e., you must get a copy of the defective gene from your Mom and one from your Dad). Autosomal means it is not carried on one of the chromosomes that determines sex. Usher's Type II is recessive, so for Eric this means that both his Mom and Dad are carriers of this condition. His brother, Dirk, does not have any symptoms of RP. Draw a pedigree of Eric's family showing possible genotypes and chances of having RP. Your pedigree must include his parents, Eric, his brother Dirk, and a potential daughter of Eric's.

- Genetic Inheritance Patterms Retinitis pigmnentosa (RP) can be autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, or x-linked. Apparently the dominant forms are often less severe. Eric's form of RP is Usher's Syndrome, which is an autosomal recessive inheritance (i.e., you must get a copy of the defective gene from your Mom and one from your Dad). Autosomal means it is not carried on one of the chromosomes that determines sex. Usher's Type II is recessive, so for Eric this means that both his Mom and Dad are carriers of this condition. His brother, Dirk, does not have any symptoms of RP. Question below - short answer approach Imagine you are a genetics counselor, and Dirk, Erik's brother, comes in to see you. Based on his parents, what are Dirk's possible genotypes for RP? What advice would you give Dirk about the chances of Dirk's children having retinitis pigmentosa if his wife is not a carrier? How would your advice change if his wife fully has the disease? Describe all the possibilities,…arrow_forwardAchondroplasia, which is characterized by difficulty converting cartilage to bone and thus results in shortened limbs. This trait is autosomal dominant. (A = achondroplasia allele; a = average height allele.) A husband and wife both have achondroplasia. The couple have a total 12 living children: 6 boys and 6 girls. The husband is colorblind, which is an X-linked recessive trait, and the wife believes there is a chance she is a carrier of colorblindness, since that trait runs in her family. One of the couple’s daughters and three of their sons are colorblind. (Xc = colorblindness allele; XC = normal color vision allele.) A. What are the complete genotypes of the husband and of the wife with respect to both colorblindness AND achondroplasia. Please EXPLAIN your answer.
