A recommendation is made not to disclose the patient’s genotype to her mother. This case study addresses the ethical conflict of whether to disclose the patient’s male genotype to the parent that has been raising the child as female. This case highlights the ethical risks and potential consequences later in life of not disclosing a patient’s CAIS diagnosis and treatment. Conversely, what would the consequences be for disclosing?arrow_forward

A man, whose father was colorblind, has a colorblind daughter. a) Is this man colorblind? How do you know? b) Where did he get his gene for colorblindness? c) Must the fathers of all colorblind girls be colorblind? Why? 1. A man whose parents were normal with respect for color vision marries a woman of normal vision and similar pedigree. One of their daughters is colorblind.

Hydatiform moles are growths of undifferentiated tissues that form within the uterus during an abnormalmolar pregnancy. These moles are usually made up ofXX diploid cells, although some can be XY diploids.Surprisingly, all of the DNA in the nuclei of the cellsin the mole is paternal in origin. Most hydatiformmoles are benign, but because they sometimes candevelop into cancers, these moles should be removedsurgically when they are detected.a. What kinds of events could lead to the generationof a hydatiform mole?b. Hydatiform moles are diploid cells with the normalnumbers of genes and chromosomes.
