A proband female with an unidentified disease seeks the advice of a genetic counselor before starting a family. Based on the following data, the counselor constructs a pedigree encompassing three generations: (1) The maternal grandfather of the proband has the disease. (2) The mother of the proband is unaffected and is the youngest of five children, the three oldest being male. (3) The proband has an affected older sister, but the youngest siblings are unaffected twins (boy and girl). (4) All the individuals who have the disease have been revealed.

Shown below is a pedigree for a completely penetrant trait called Adams syndrome in which babies are born blind. This trait occurs when an allele of the adams gene is associated with ≥200 tandem trinucleotide repeats (the normal number is 10). First cousins, III-1 and III-2 married and their first child (IV-1) was blind. For their next child, they decided to do in vitro fertilization with III-1's sperm and III-2's eggs to generate six embryos (labeled E1-6). When each embryo contained eight cells, a single cell was removed and genomic DNA was isolated. PCR reactions using primers that flank the trinucleotide repeat region were then performed and the resulting fragments were fractionated on an agarose gel. PCR reactions using genomic DNA from III-1, III-2 and IV-1 were included as controls. The DNA was visualized using a fluorescent dye and the gel is shown below. Based on this information, select the best answer from the list to the questions below. || E1 = embryo 1 IV E1 E2 E3 E4 E5…

The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance for an uncommon human disease. Filled symbols indicate individuals with the disease: open symbols indicate normal individuals. Using the symbols A and a, answer the following questions about this pedigree. 1. What are the most probable genotypes of individuals II-9 and II-10 2. If individuals II-1 and II-2 have another child, what is the probability that it will have the disease?
Help me create a pedigree of this information: Pedigree analysis: Generation 1: Normal parents (AA x AA) Generation 2: Carrier parents (AA x AS) Generation 3: Affected child (AS x AS) Generation 4: Affected grandchild (SS) This pedigree has two normal parents in the first generation. Second generation carriers carry the sickle cell trait from one parent. The disease is 25% more likely to be inherited in the third generation if both parents have the 'S' allele. If both parents have the 'S' allele, their children will have sickle cell anemia in the fourth generation

I (B+ AB- 1 2 3 4 II O- A+ В- B- AB+ A+ 1 2 4 5 6 a. What are the ABO blood group genotypes of individuals I-1 and I-2? b. Which child/ren of individual I-4 can donate blood to him? c. Which individual in the pedigree can donate blood to all the other individuals in the pedigree?
This is a pedigree for a dominant trait caused by gene A in humans. Shaded symbols show individuals affected with the trait; non-shaded individuals are normal (aa). Among the progeny arising from the marriage of individual III-1, what proportion would be expected to show the trait? Among the progeny arising from the marriage of individual III-6, what proportion would be expected to show the trait?
The pedigree below is of a rare single gene disease. Given the pedigree shown below, what is the most likely pattern of inheritance for this disease? Explain your answer. Note that closed symbols are for individuals affected by the disease and open symbols are unaffected individuals (limit 3-4 sentences).
A woman who is heterozygous for gene B has brown eyes. B is a dominant allele for brown pigmentation, while b is recessive allele for blue pigmentation. The woman has a patch of blue color in her left eye. Give THREE (3) reasons how this might occur.
A trihybrid individual with the genotype QqRrTt is testcrossed with a ggrrtt individual. The resulting offspring are as follows: QrT QRt Qrt 11 grT 76 50 qRT 357 343 qrt 78 QRT 76 qRt Total = 1000 Determine the allele arrangement and gene order in the trihybrid parent. Give your answer using the AbC/aBc notation. Draw a chromosome map for these genes. Give your map distances to one decimal place. (Use underline or underscore (_) to draw the line for the map) a) b)
Below is a pedigree of a family with a history of Best disease (or vitelliform macular dystrophy). All members of this family underwent ASO testing using two different oligonucleotides (ASO 1 and ASO 2): one that hybridizes to the only known mutation that leads to Best disease and one that hybridizes to the wild-type gene sequence in the same region. From the information you have, how is Best disease most likely inherited? 1. II.
