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?
As it turned out, one of the tallest Potsdam Guards had an unquenchable attraction to short women. During his tenure as guard, he had numerous clandestine affairs. In each case, children resulted. Subsequently, some of the childrenwho had no way of knowing that they were relatedmarried and had children of their own. Assume that two pairs of genes determine height. The genotype of the 7-foot-tall Potsdam Guard was A9A9B9B9, and the genotype of all of his 5-foot clandestine lovers was AABB. An A9 or B9 allele in the offspring each adds 6 inches to the base height of 5 feet conferred by the AABB genotype. a. What were the genotypes and phenotypes of all the F1 children? b. Diagram the cross between the F1 offspring, and give all possible genotypes and phenotypes of the F2 progeny
Using the pedigree, assume that the disease is caused by an autosomal dominant allele, R. Give the genotype of the following individuals: (a) III-4 (the girl at lower right) (b) II-3 (the girl’s mother) (c) II-4 (the girl’s father)
Using the pedigree chart attached: 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 second pedigree involves albinism, an autosomal recessive trait. A couple has a son with normal pigmentation, a daughter with normal pigmentation, and an albino son. Another couple has three children, a son with normal pigmentation and two daughters with normal pigmentation. The daughter from the first couple marries the man from the second couple and they have three children together: an albino son, an albino daughter, and a daughter with normal pigmentation.Draw the pedigree on the next page
In human beings, the gene for red‑green colorblindness (r) is sex‑linked and recessive to its allele for normal vision (R), while the gene for freckles (F) is autosomal and dominant over its allele for nonfreckled (f). A nonfreckled, normal‑visioned woman whose father was freckled and colorblind, marries a freckled, colorblind man whose mother was nonfreckled. What is the genotype of the woman's father? What is the probability that the couple's first child will be a non-freckled, normal visioned girl? What is the probability that the first two children born to the couple will be freckled and colorblind girls?
What are the genotypes of the mother and father in the pedigree below? The pedigree shows albinism (an autosomal recessive trait). The shaded shapes represent albino individuals. a. mother - homozygous dominant; father - homozygous dominant b. mother - heterozygous; father - homozygous recessive c. mother - homozygous recessive; father - heterozygous d. mother - heterozygous; father - heterozygous e. mother - homozygous dominant; father - homozygous recessive
Ann's family has a history of cystic fibrosis, a recessive genetic disease. In the pedigree, family members who are afflicted with the disease are shown in red. Members who are unafflicted may or may not be carriers. Which of the given family members can be identified definitively as unafflicted carriers of cystic fibrosis?
