Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits A young boy is color-blind. His one brother and five sisters are not. The boy has three maternal uncles and four maternal aunts. None of his uncles children or grandchildren is color-blind. One of the maternal aunts married a color-blind man, and half of her children, both male and female, are color-blind. The other aunts married men who have normal color vision. All their daughters have normal vision, but half of their sons are color-blind. a. Which of the boys four grandparents transmitted the gene for color blindness? b. Are any of the boys aunts or uncles color-blind? c. Is either of the boys parents color-blind?
A couple who wishes to have children visits you, a genetic counselor. There is a history of a deleterious recessive trait in males in the womans family but not in the mans family. The couple is convinced that because his family shows no history of this genetic disease, they are not at risk of having affected children. What steps would you take to assess this situation and educate the couple?
Which of the following statements about X-linked recessive patterns is true? The X-linked trait appears more often in females than in males. An affected father can never pass an X-linked recessive allele to an XY son. An affected father can never pass an X-linked recessive allele to a daughter. Heterozygous females always express the X-linked recessive trait.
Which of the following statements about X-linked recessive inheritance is true? X-linked recessive traits appear more frequently in females than males. X-linked traits are only found in humans. Females who are carriers of an X-linked recessive trait may not exhibit any phenotypic effects. Males have two allele copies of X-linked genes.
The X-linked gene responsible for DMD encodes a protein called dystrophin that is required for muscle function. Dystrophin protein is not secreted—it remains inthe cells that produce it. Given what you know aboutBarr body formation, do you think that females heterozygous for the recessive DMD disease allele could havethe disease in some parts of their bodies and not others?
Human (and fly) males are said to be hemizygous for a(n) ________ trait. Responses recessive recessive incomplete dominant incomplete dominant sex-linked
In humans, having facial dimples is dominant to not having facial dimples. Mary has dimples, yet only 3 of her 10 children have dimples. What must Mary's genotype be? homozygous dominant heterozygous homozygous recessive has dimples does not have dimples
Which of the following is not a characteristic of X-linked recessive traits in humans? a. Approximately one-half of the sons of a female carrier are affected. b. More males than females affected. c. Phenotypically normal daughters of affected men are always carriers. d. They cannot be passed from father to son. e. Affected daughters always have an affected mother.
Color-blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. Under what circumstances will this condition manifest in a child? Top of Form If the child is a male and its mother has the recessive allele If the child is a female and its father has the recessive allele If the child is a female and its mother has the recessive allele If the child is a male and its father has the recessive allele

G6PD deficiency is an X-linked recessive disorder. When people who have this disorder eat fava beans, they have a dangerous acute reaction in which a large number of their red blood cells rupture. A mother has the disorder; the father does not. What is the chance that any child of this union will have the trait?
