autosomal recessive disease - a disease caused by the presence of two recessive mutant genes on an autosome some of ex. are
Cystic Fibrosis: Cystic fibrosis is a hereditary disease affecting the exocrine (mucus) glands of the lungs, liver, pancreas and intestines, causing progressive disability due to multisystem failure.
Phenylketonuria: A metabolic disorder where there is a deficiency of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase which leads to a harmful buildup of the phenylalanine in the body. Normally the phenylalanine is converted into tyrosine.
Sickle Cell Anemia: Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by red blood cells which are crescent-shaped rather than the normal doughnut shape. These abnormally shaped red blood cells are unable to function normally and tend to undergo premature destruction which leads to anemia.

FAP follows both an autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant pattern depending on which gene you inherit the disease from. If inherited through the APC gene, which is most common, it is autosomal gdthe disease.
