SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND SOCIETY Imagine that you are a genetic counselor. What advice or suggestions might you give in the following situations? (a) A couple has come for advice because the woman had a sister who died of Tay-Sachs disease. (b) A young man and woman who are not related are engaged to be married. However, they have learned that the mans parents are first cousins, and they are worried about the possibility of increased risk of genetic defects in their own children. (c) A young womans paternal uncle (her fathers brother) has hemophilia A. Her father is free of the disease, and there has never been a case of hemophilia A in her mothers family. Should she be concerned about the possibility of hemophilia A in her own children? (d) A 20-year-old man is seeking counseling because his father was recently diagnosed with Huntingtons disease. (e) A 45-year-old woman has just been diagnosed with Huntingtons disease. She says she will not tell her college-age sons because of the burden it will place on them. Given that the woman, not her sons, is your client, do you have a duty to inform the sons? Explain your reasoning.

You are a gene hunter, trying to find the genetic basis for a rare inherited disease. Examination of six pedigrees of families affected by the disease provides inconsistent results. For two of the families, the disease is co-inherited with markers on chromosome 7. For the other four families, the disease is co-inherited with markers on chromosome 12. Explain how this difference might have arisen.

Trait: NeurofibromatosisThe dominant form is neurofibromatosis, caused by the production of an abnormal form of the protein neurofibromin. Affected individuals show spots of abnormal skin pigmentation and non-cancerous tumors that can interfere with the nervous system and cause blindness. Some tumors can convert to a cancerous form.The recessive form is a normal protein - in other words, no neurofibromatosis. Situation:Karina wants to know from whom she got her disorder. Her grandmother Ana has neurofibromatosis. Ana marries Angelo, who does not have the disease. They both have children named Christine (eldest), Monica, Joseph, Marco, and Yna (youngest). Monica, Marco, and Yna have the disorder out of the five children. Christine marries a man with the disorder, and they have two daughters, Kadita and Karina, who both have the disorder, and another daughter, Karrie, who does not have neurofibromatosis. Yna, on the other hand, marries a man with the disorder. They have four children,…
How can you use this piece of information to help you explain to your friends what is the significance of mutations in the emergence of new genetic properties (alleles) that may result (or not) in new phenotypic characteristics? (Recall that not all SNPs affect phenotype.)
The coloration of calico cats is also the result of the inactivation of one of a female cat's sex chromosomes. In females, two X chromosomes are present in all cells but only one is active, the inactive one is called a BARR BODY. This is why the coat color is random, even among cloned calico cats that have identical genomes. Calico is a coat color found in cats, which is caused by a SEX-LINKED, CODOMINANT allele.
Hi im having some trouble with this question, if someone could help solve these with an explanation it would be very helpful! In cats, a gene on the X chromosome (X-linked) makes the protein amelogenin, which helps direct the formation of tooth enamel. A mutation in an amelogenin allele changes the amino acid sequence of the protein and can cause a condition called amelogenesis imperfecta, leading to defects in a cat’s tooth enamel. In one type of amelogenesis imperfecta in cats, the allele associated with the condition, a, acts in a recessive manner. Its dominant counterpart, A, results in normal levels of amelogenin. Additionally, the dominant allele H at an autosomal locus that regulates the expression of the protein Sonic Hedgehog is responsible for polydactyly (the presence of extra digits on each foot, “double paws”) and the expression of its recessive counterpart h results in the absence of polydactyly (having the 5 digits per front paw, and 4 digits per hind paw). A female cat…
