eviousi you saw these pedigrees and had to determine if single gene autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive were possible explanations of the data. Now you should also consider sex linkage. Draw all possible conclusions concerning the modes of inheritance for the traits portrayed in the following pedigrees (each pedigree is a different trait). Be sure to specifically indicate if any mode is not possible and define your alleles and show genotypes that support your conclusions. There are five single gene modes; Autosomal Dominant, Autosomal Recessive, X linked Dominant, X linked Recessive and Y linked (this one is rare and trivial to determine). A)

In humans, the genetic disease cystic fibrosis is caused by a recessive allele (a). The normal (healthy) allele is dominant (A). What is the genotype of someone who has cystic fibrosis? What are the two different genotypes that a healthy person could have? If two people were both heterozygous for the cystic fibrosis gene, what fraction of their children would be likely to have this disease? Hint: Draw a Punnett square to figure it out.
Below is a pedigree of a human genetic disease in which solid color indicates affected individuals. Assume that the disease is caused by a gene that can have the alleles A or a. a) Based on this pedigree, what is the most likely mode of inheritance? b) What is/are the possible genotype/s of person 1? c) What is/are the possible genotype (s) of person 4 ? Explain your answers.
The pedigree shown below illustrates the inheritance pattern for a trait controlled by a single fully penetrant gene with complete dominance. Based on the pedigree do the following: a - List one mode of inheritance consistent with the pedigree . b. using the mode listed (a) the genotypes of individuals I.2, II.5, and III.3. (if two genotypes are possible for any of these individuals, list both). asap please.
Above is a pedigree for colorblindness. Based on the pedigree, is the disease dominant or recessive and is it sex-linked or autosomal? Why? Furthermore, what is the probability that 18 on this chart is affected but the condition, and what is the probability that 18 is a carrier? Why? Are the probability of being a carrier and an affected individual different? Why
The following genetic map describes three hypothetical human autosomal genes, each of which exhibits two alleles. Two-factor map distances are shown. A = Artistic (dominant) a = Inartistic (recessive) M = Moral (dominant) m = Immoral (recessive) G = Generous (dominant) g = Greedy (recessive) Assume that these traits exhibit simple Mendelian dominance/recessiveness. The coefficient of coincidence for this map is 0.4. An artistic, moral, generous heterozygous female of genotype AMG/amg marries an inartistic, immoral, greedy homozygous male of genotype amg/amg. What is the probability that their firstborn child will be inartistic, immoral and greedy? What is the probability that their firstborn child will be inartistic, moral and generous? What is the probability that their firstborn child will be artistic, immoral and generous?
Assume that a particular unusual phenotype is caused by an autosomal recessive allele. John marries Jane, and they have a daughter Mia together who has the unusual phenotype. John has a brother Carlos who appears normal. Jane has a sister Margit with the unusual phenotype. John and Jane are not related, and none of their parents have the unusual phenotype. Draw a 3-generation pedigree that depicts the entire scenario and assign the most likely genotypes to each individual. (You can use any letter you wish to represent the gene.) Yes, you should include Jane's parents and sister, and also John's parents and brother, as part of the pedigree. And don't forget Mia!
Please consider the following pedigree. Assume that people who marry in to the family do not carry the allele unless otherwise indicated. Assume complete penetrance. image attached a. Is it possible for the inheritance pattern for the trait illustrated in this pedigree to be as a result of each of the following? Answer yes or no. (i) an autosomal recessive allele (AR)(ii) an autosomal dominant allele (AD)(iii) a X-linked recessive allele (XR)(iv) a X-linked dominant allele (XD) b. Provide a set of parents that definitively supports your answers in (a).
Given the following pedigree: Is the trait autosomal or sex-linked? Is the trait dominant or recessive? Based only on the information given, what is the probability that I-2 is heterozygous? Give the genotypes of individuals II-3, II-4. What is the probability that individual III-1 is purebreeding?
Total fingerprint ridge count exemplifies a polygenic inheritance pattern. Penrose (1969) and others have suggested that a minimum of seven gene loci contribute to TRC, but a four-locus model is hypothesized in the problems that follow. Thus, AABBCCDD represents the genotype for maximum ridge count and aabbccdd symbolizes the genotype for the minimum ridge count. Assume that each active allele adds 15 ridges to the TRC of the male and 12 to the TRC of the female and that having the genotype aabbccdd produces a baseline TRC of 70 for males and 50 for females. Predict the TRC for each of the following individuals: Genotype Male Female AABBCCDD AabbccDd AaBBCcDD aaBbCCDd A. Write the genotypes of parents who are heterozygous for all four genes. B. Write the genotype of their child who has the maximum number of active alleles possible. C. What are the TRCs for the parents? D. What is the TRC of the child from B (assume male)?…
