A man is homozygous dominant for ten different genes that assort independently. How many genotypically different types of sperm could he produce? A woman is homozygous recessive for eight of these genes and is heterozygous for the other two. How many genotypically different types of eggs could she produce? What can you conclude about the relationship between the number of different gametes possible and the number of heterozygous and homozygous gene pairs that are present?
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal disease that mainly affects the white population, and 1 in 20 whites are heterozygotes. Genetic testing can diagnose heterozygotes. Should a genetic screening program for cystic fibrosis be instituted? Should the federal government fund it? Should the program be voluntary or mandatory, and why?
An allele responsible for Marfan syndrome Section 13.4 is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. What is the chance that a child will inherit the allele if one parent does not carry it and the other is heterozygous?
A pedigree analysis was performed on the family of a man with schizophrenia. Based on the known concordance statistics, would his MZ twin be at high risk for the disease? Would the twins risk decrease if he were raised in an environment different from that of his schizophrenic brother?
