How do you think consanguinity is increasing the risk factors of genetic disorders? Explain with examples (at least two). It won’t be possible to change the tradition all of a sudden. If you are a clinical geneticist, how you will be managing this type of community?
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?
Pedigree Analysis Is a Basic Method in Human Genetics Pedigree analysis permits all of the following except: a. an orderly presentation of family information b. the determination of whether a trait is genetic c. the determination of whether a trait is dominant or recessive d. an understanding of which gene is involved in a heritable disorder e. the determination of whether a trait is sex-linked or autosomal
