this condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern ,which means both copies of the gene in each cell have mutations,the parents of an individual with autosomal recessive condition each carry one copy of mutated gene but they typically do not show symptoms or signs of the condition

A husband and wife have a son with cystic fibrosis Their second child a daughter does not Prepare a pedigree for this family?
To have cystic fibrosis both parents have to be a carrier. Each parent passes on one of their genes to their children; they each have one healthy and one cystic fibrosis gene. The child with cystic fibrosis receives a cystic fibrosis gene from each parent. The other child has at least one healthy gene if she does not have cystic fibrosis, though she could be a carrier. hope it would help
Why do inherited diseases like hemophilia and cystic fibrosis occur?
They are caused by the genes that we inherit from our parents. Genes govern how our body is run. Cystic fibrosis is caused by a recessive alle. This means that both parents must be carriers of the alle responsible for cystic fibrosis. The parents don't have to have the condition themselves; they can be just carriers of the one alle that makes up the condition.
