(M) Pattern of Inheritance Flashcards
T or F. The pattern of inheritance is the interaction between alleles in heterozygotes
T
- one allele controls the phenotype—can already manifest
- does not skip generation
Dominant
- does not control the phenotype—unless it’s homozygous or sex linked (XY)
- not expressed in heterozygotes
- neither parent is required to have the trait since they can be heterozygous (carriers) that can later on manifest to the next generation
recessive
What’s the ratio of the offspring that will be affected in autosomal dominant inheritance?
50:50
T or F. X linked gene is located on one of the numbered chromosome or nonsex chromosome
F (autosomal)
In Autosomal Dominant, if there are 4 sons, how many will be affected?
2 (50%)
This diseases such as Huntington Disease, and Neurofibromatosis mostly occur in this type of gene
autosomal dominant
T or F. In autosomal dominant, MALE & FEMALE can transmit the trait to their offspring since one mutated copy of the gene in each cell is sufficient.
T
T or F. There’s skipping of generation in autosomal dominant.
F
Need 2 mutated copies of gene for it to manifest
Autosomal Recessive
ratio of Autosomal Recessive
1:2:1
(HETEROZYGOUS PARENTS: 1/4 or 25% of the progeny will be affected)
T or F. In autosomal recessive, the parents can be unaffected
T (kasi carrier sila, their offspring will inherit it)
T or F. In autosomal recessive, this only appears in male.
F (both male and female)
What are the diseases associated with autosomal recessive?
Cystic fibrosis, Albinism
one single gene is needed for the disease to be manifested—more common in female
X-Linked Dominant
This gene has no male-male transmission
X-linked Dominant and X linked reccesive
T or F. Daughters are affected by their mother more than their father in X-linked dominant.
F (father raw then the mother affect both son and daughter)
This gene has severe effect in male (XY) because there is no other allele to mask its effects
X-linked dominant
this gene is always expressed in males than in females.
X-linked recessive
T or F. The x-linked recessive is mostly expressed in heterozygous.
F (Rarely sa females)
T or F. In x-linked recessive, affected sons are born to affected mother while all daughters of affected father will become carrier
T
What gene is mostly associated with these diseases: Hemophilia A and G6PD
X-linked recessive
AKA HOLANDRIC Inheritance
Y-linked recessive
the only gene that is passed from father to all sons and does not skip generations
y-linked recessive
T or F. In Y linked recessive, it does not skip generations even in females.
F (they only become carriers; di ko gets paano pero ayan sabi ni mam f2f pokey)
This gene is inherited through the maternal line (egg cell)
mitochondrial inheritance
T or F, in mitochondrial, male can still be infected but only daughters can pass it to their children
T
