- Ch. 14-4 Duchenne muscular dystrophy, which is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern, nearly always occurs in males. Explain why.My Question is what is the probability their first child will have hemophilia and drawn pedigrees for family members with genotypes. My explantion so far: A man has both X and Y chromosomes as sex chromosomes in his body. Here, though the brother of the man is hemophiliac, a man can’t be a carrier of hemophilia. So, it can be said that his chromosome is “XnY”.Here, the “n” stands for “normal”.Though the paternal uncle is hemophiliac, a man cannot be a carrier of hemophilia, his niece will not be a career. So it can be said that the woman is also not a carrier and has the “XnX” chromosome.So, as the mother is not a carrier, their first child does not have a chance of having hemophilia. This can be determined as it is known that there is no hidden carrier of hemophilia in the family.Need help, please. What are the ratios for the progeny phenotype(s)?
- A. Look at the pedigree, and DISREGARD individual II-8 for the moment. Is the pattern of inheritance of Unetan syndrome dominant or recessive? You may assume that the gene is FULLY-PENETRANT in this family. Please give two specific reasons that support your conclusion. B. Now, looking at BOTH the pedigree AND at the Southern blot, is this trait autosomal, X-linked, or Y-linked? Please give two specific reasons that support your conclusion. Once again, disregard II-8 for the moment. One of your two reasons must refer specifically to evidence present in the Southern blot. C. Define the gene alleles associated with Unetan syndrome. Your alleles MUST be consistent with the pattern of inheritance, AND your genetic notation must be consistent with that used throughout the course. Unetan syndrome allele: ________ Normal allele: ________Practice Pedigree Problem help. I am confused so please show. Label Phenotypes and genotypes as you go about the Pedigree (and whatever else might be required)! Thank you again for your help, these questions confuse me). Hair or fur length in cats is controlled by a single, autosomal gene; the short hair-allele is dominant to the allele for long hair. Hair color is produced by a different gene which is located on the X chromosome. One allele for this sex-linked gene produces yellow, while an alternate allele produces black fur color; individuals which are heterozygous for these alleles are calico or tortiseshell in color. a). If a long-haired, black male is mated with a calico female homozygous for short hair, what kind of kittens will be produced in the F1generation? Give both genotypes and phenotypes; express the genotypes both symbolically and in words.So the question is asking to construct a pedigree, but I am extremely confused on how to find the genotypes of the sons and daughters. The trait is x-linked recessive.
- Can someone help me with these genetics questions about Punnett squares and pedigrees?What pattern of Mendelian inheritance is represented in this pedigree and explain how you made this determination.(please refer to image attached)A couple was referred for genetic counseling because they wanted to know the chances of having a child with dwarfism. Both the man and the woman had achondroplasia (MIM 100800), the most common form of short-limbed dwarfism. The couple knew that this condition is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, but they were unsure what kind of physical manifestations a child would have if it inherited both mutant alleles. They were each heterozygous for the FGFR3 (MIM 134934) allele that causes achondroplasia. Normally, the protein encoded by this gene interacts with growth factors outside the cell and receives signals that control growth and development. In achrodroplasia, a mutation alters the activity of the receptor, resulting in a characteristic form of dwarfism. Because both the normal and mutant forms of the FGFR3 protein act before birth, no treatment for achrondroplasia is available. The parents each carry one normal allele and one mutant allele of FGRF3, and they wanted information on their chances of having a homozygous child. The counsellor briefly reviewed the phenotypic features of individuals with achondroplasia. These include facial features (large head with prominent forehead; small, flat nasal bridge; and prominent jaw), very short stature, and shortening of the arms and legs. Physical examination and skeletal X-ray films are used to diagnose this condition. Final adult height is approximately 4 feet. Because achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant condition, a heterozygote has a 1-in-2, or 50%, chance of passing this trait to his or her offspring. However, about 75% of those with achondroplasia have parents of average size who do not carry the mutant allele. In these cases, achondroplasia is due to a new mutation. In the couple being counseled, each individual is heterozygous, and they are at risk for having a homozygous child with two copies of the mutated gene. Infants with homozygous achondroplasia are either stillborn or die shortly after birth. The counselor recommended prenatal diagnosis via ultrasounds at various stages of development. In addition, a DNA test is available to detect the homozygous condition prenatally. What if the couple wanted prenatal testing so that a normal fetus could be aborted?
