3.4 genetics 2 Flashcards
3 types of inheritance
autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, sex linked
who has the trait in autosomal dominant diseases?
heterozygous
what is variability? where can it be seen?
different expression of trait based on the amount of expression, heterozygous individuals for autosomal dominant
who has the trait in autosomal recessive diseases?
homozygous recessive individuals (heterozygous does not show the trait)
sex linked alleles can be found on what chromosome?
X
Females with one allele of a sex linked disease are _____ but if they have male children that inherit this allele they will _____
carriers, have the trait
what can you deduce from this pedigree?
-dad is affected, so are kids (2/3)
- both M and F, doesn’t skip a generation
-most likely autosomal dominant

late
what is secondary dentition like in Cleidocranial dysplaia?
late, malaligned, some teeth malformed/hypoplastic, supernumerary teeth
-enamel hypoplasia
what causes cleidocranial dysplasia
mutations of CBFA1
what is crouzons syndrome?
