25
additive
each gene makes an active, equal contribution
26
dominant-recessive
dominant controls & hides the influence of the recessive
27
everyone is a carrier of at least how many genes that could produced serious defects/diseases in kids
at least 20
28
give the meaning of congenital
present at birth/may or may not be genetic
29
give the meaning of inherited
genetically passed on
30
give the 3 types of Disorders
``` chromosomal; "Karyotypes" single gene (mendelian; a/t/g/c) polygenic/multifactorial (genes & environment combined ```
31
what process ends with a duplicate number?
mitosis
32
nature means it has what effect?
genetic effect
33
give the process of mitosis
pairs of chromosomes separate to the ends of the cells, then replicate themselves & the cell splits
34
each cell has how many chromosomes in each cell after mitosis?
46 chromosomes
35
after mitosis, what is the number called?
diploid number (duplicates)
36
give the end result of mitosis
1 cell becomes 2 with the exact same # and type of chromosomes
37
explain meiosis
``` pairs of chromosomes separate to ends of cells cell split each cell has 23 chromosomes this only occurs with sex cells haploid=half so the zygote will end up with 46 ```
38
autosomal non-disjunction (name all 3)
``` Patau's syndrome(trisomy 13) trisomy 18 (edwards) trisomy 21 (down) ```
39
what all is present with Patau's Syndrome?
``` cleft lip cleft palate decreased muscle tone heart defects polydactyl small eyes ```
40
describe trisomy 13
there are 3 #13 chromosomes
41
whats evident in edwards syndrome?
``` heart defect kidney defect small head & jaw low set ears hernias club feet rocker bottom feet no long lifespan ```
42
describe turners syndrom
only has one X
43
physical about turners
short/thick neck heart defects infertility
44
sex chromosome non-disjunctions include what two disorders?
turners & kleinfelter's syndromes
45
describe kleinfelter's
trisomy male XXY
46
physical in kleinfelters
``` delayed speech & language tall infertile intellectual disabilities large breasts hips larger ```
47
TX in kleinfelters
testosterone
48
TX in turners
supply estrogen
49
describe translocation
structural error | 1 chromosome or part of 1 chromosome attaches to another
50
causes of translocation
deleted chromosome or (part/entire) or added in as extra
51
translocation commonly seen with
21 chromosome "trisomy" | cri du chat #5
52
whats evident in Cri du Chat?
arm deleted
53
increased r/o inheritance in siblings with what disorder?
translocation
54
physical-Cri du Chat
infants cry-distinct (larynx not developed correctly small at birth small head & jaw small chin intellectual disabilities (moderate to severe) weak muscle tone LBW low set ears wide-spaced eyes if there is no organ dysfunction, the infant can have a NL lifespan
55
single pair of genes are called
alleles
56
single gene disorder describe
with one gene on a chromosome px
57
on every pair of chromosomes there are how many forms of each gene?
2 forms of each gene
58
governs traits/may take alternate forms
alleles
59
alleles represent what in the body?
hair/eye color
60
underlying combo of genetic material
genotype
61
observable expression
phenotype
