The questions below all refer to the following pedigree. The locus for allele D/d determines how cilia function within the body. Mutations at this allele cause abnormal ciliary function, resulting in a clinical disorder characterized by frequent respiratory infections (including in the ears, sinuses, and lungs), as well as infertility. In the pedigree, black circles/squares represent individuals affected by the disorder. White circles/squares represent unaffected individuals. Remember, if a trait is rare in a population (such as this one), we assume individuals marrying into the family are NOT carriers unless the information provided indicates otherwise.

In individuals affected by cystic fibrosis, salt crystals may appear afterperspiration dries up. In addition, the disease causes respiratory disorderswhich can be both debilitating and lethal. It occurs in individuals homozygousfor the recessive gene. Two normal parents had a daughter with thesymptoms of this disease, and a normal son who marries a normal womanwith an afflicted A test (salt concentration in perspiration of heterozygotes ishigher than normal) disclosed that both are indeed carriers of the gene. If thefirst child born to the mating in (b) was defective, what is the probability thatthe 2nd child would also be defective?Express answer in fraction form
Below is a pedigree chart for a family that has a history of Alkaptonuria. Individuals infected with this condition can have darkened skin, brown urine, and can suffer from joint damage and other complications. Given this pedigree answer the following questions. Given the data in the pedigree chart is this genetic condition autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive? What are the genotypes for #1, #2, and #3? If either of the 4th generation "aa" females were to mate with a homozygous dominant male would any of their offspring illustrate the phenotype? Why or why not?
Answer the following questions given the pedigree below. Please assume that no other mutations are occurring, complete penetrance, and that the individual marked with an asterisk (*) doesn’t carry the allele causing the affected phenotype. Q4) Assuming II-2 and II-3 want to have another child. what are all the possible genotypes, and what is the percentage that their child will be affected?
The pedigree below shows a family affected by a disease. Assume that the individuals marked with an asterisk (*) do not carry any allele associated with the affected phenotype, no other mutation spontaneously occurred, and complete penetrance. Answer the following questions below. Use the notation XR for the allele associated with the dominant phenotype and Xr for the allele associated with the recessive phenotype. Q1) Give the genotypes for as many individuals in the pedigree as possible.
Refer to the pedigree below which shows inheritance for achondroplasia (dwarfism), a dominantly inherited trait (denoted as D), which are the darkened circles and squares. Dwarfism (darkened shapes) are dominantly inherited, while normal height is recessively inherited (hh). Based on the pedigree, what is the correct genotype for individual #II-6?

Please consider the following pedigree. Assume that people who marry in to the family do not carry the allele unless otherwise indicated. Assume complete penetrance. I II 5 6 III 6 IV 1 2 a. Is it possible for the inheritance pattern for the trait illustrated in this pedigree to be as a result of each of the following? Answer yes or no. (i) an autosomal recessive allele (AR) (ii) an autosomal dominant allele (AD) (iii) a X-linked recessive allele (XR) (iv) a X-linked dominant allele (XD) b.

O Huntington's Disease is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by a defective gene. A pedigree is shown below with a family that is affected. Describe the pattern of inheritance that Huntington's Disease is following. Justify your answer with reference to the diagram. Use proper notation (II-3, etc.) when referring to individuals. II 2 3 6 8 II 1 2 3 4 5 7.
The following pedigree shows the inheritance of Huntington’s disease, a fatal genetic disorder that causes neurodegeneration. Since signs and symptoms usually do not appear until adulthood, many who are carriers may not realize their risk of passing on the disease-causing allele. The following pedigree represents a family in which some people are affected by Huntington’s disease. Using just the information on this pedigree, is Huntington’s disease caused by a dominant allele or recessive alleles? What are the genotypes of the grandparents (I-1 and I-2)? What are the genotypes of the parents (II-6 and II-7)? If the parents above have another child, what is the chance that they will be affected by the Hungtington’s disease allele? What are the genotypes of the unaffected children (III-8, 9, 10)? What is the chance that the unaffected children above will pass on a Huntington’s disease allele to their children? What is the genotype of the affected child (III-11)? What is the chance…
