yes it can skip a generation, since it is a Mendel inheritance. and it is a reccesive trait. therefore offspring's can have two unaffected parents but chances are both parents might be carriers

Can sickle cell trait skip a generation?
yes it can skip a generation, since it is a Mendel inheritance. and it is a reccesive trait. therefore offspring's can have two unaffected parents but chances are both parents might be carriers
Do autosomal dominants skip generations?
Autosomal dominant traits typically do not skip generations because affected individuals usually have a 50% chance of passing the trait on to their offspring. However, the trait may appear to skip generations if carriers of the trait do not show symptoms or if there is a lack of complete penetrance.
Can recessive traits skip generations?
Your parental genotype. AA X Bb gives two--------AB two--------Ab The recessive trait is masked in this generation. This is how recessive traits skip generations
What are inherited trait?
An inherited trait is a charateristic passed from parents to offspring.
How can recessive traits skip generations?
First of all, there is no 'twin gene' as such. The only genetic link to twinning is that of hyper-ovulation, in which the mother releases more than one egg at a time. If women in a particular family have the gene for hyper-ovulation then this will increase their chances of having dizygotic (non-identical) twins. There is no link between genes and identical twinning. There is no scientific evidence to show that twins are more likely to skip a generation, although if hyper-ovulation runs in a family then it is more likely that twinning will occur across the different generations.
Can a human pedigree be used to detect a recessive trait?
Yes, a human pedigree can be used to detect a recessive trait by tracking the inheritance pattern of the trait within a family. Patterns such as multiple affected siblings, skip generations, and consanguinity can help identify recessive trait inheritance. Pedigree analysis can reveal carriers of the trait even if they do not show symptoms.
If Laurie has albinism but neither of her parents exhibits this inherited condition the trait must be?
Recessive. This trait can skip generations, because it requires two recessive alleles (ex. aa vs Aa), and can be present in heterogeneous alleles (Aa) without showing a recessive phenotype.
Do recessive traits have the potential to skip generations?
Yes, recessive traits can skip generations because they can be carried in the genes of individuals without being expressed in their physical characteristics.
Why does the disease polydactyly not skip generations?
yes it can skip generations, it runs in my family but skipped me. My great aunt, uncle, aunt and my aunts second born has it but no one else. So yes it can skip generations. I've been looking into this to see if it could be traced and try to see ahead of time if it picks certian generations or is just random.
What pattern is apparent in pedigrees charting the inheritance of a recessive trait?
The person with the recessive trait seems to 'skip' a generation
When studying a pedigree how do scientists determine if a trait is dominate or recessive?
dominant only appears in the F1 generation as 4 recessive stays hidden or masked in the F1 generation
Does alcoholism skip generations?
No. There is no scientific evidence to support this theory.
