Why are pedigree helpful in determining genetic disorders?
The genetic counselor can use a pedigree to see which previous generations had inherited disorders or were carriers of inherited disorders. This can be used to determine whether the parent is a carrier of an inherited disorder or completely free of it, (unless the parent clearly has the disorder), which can be used to determine the chance of the inherited disorder being passed onto the children.
