Does the phenotype indicated by the red circles and squares in this pedigree show an inheritance pattern that is autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked?
The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?
Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?
Neurofibromatosis-1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder where tumours form in the base layer of the skin or in nerve tissues. What is the probability that individuals II-1 and II-2 will have a genetic son with NF1? Find the image attached.
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?
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? Dominant Autosomal Pedigree 2 II 2 3 II 1 2 3 6 9 10 Dd DD DD or Dd dd
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. Provide a genotype for individual III-6 for the most likely mode of inheritance as determined in (a).
Clara has polydactyly, an autosomal dominant that is 80% penetrant. Clara inherited her polydactyly from her mother, her father had no polydactyly in his family. She has an extra toe on her left foot. Her husband Ralph has no polydactyly in his family. A) What is the chance that Clara will have a child that will inherit polydactyly? B) What is the chance that the child will express polydactyly. You can leave these as un-calculated equations.
Ectrodactyly is a rare condition in which the fingers are absent, and the hand is split. It is usually inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. What do the double horizontal lines mean between III-1 and III-4? Is the pedigree below consistent with autosomal dominant inheritance?

Please consider the following pedigree. Assume that people who marry in to the family do not carry the allele. Assume complete penetrance. I II III 3 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. Based strictly on the characteristic patterns of inheritance that define the four different options in (a), give a definitive motivation for the most likely mode of inhertance.
Sickle cell anemia is inherited as an autosomal recessive condition. It also exhibits incomplete dominance in that the heterozygous genotype displays a mild form of the disease known as sickle cell trait while individuals with the homozygous recessive genotype have a severe form of SCA. A man who has severe sickle cell anemia marries a woman who suffers from a mild trait. What is the probabilitu they will have a child with severe SCA?What is the probability they will have a child with mild SCA? What is the probability they will have a normal child?
