Transmitted by a dominant gene. If that gene is inherited from either parent, the offspring will develop HD. If the gene is NOT inherited, then the offspring will not have HD- AND cannot pass the gene to their offspring.

∙ 12y agoHD is transmitted from parent to child on a dominant gene. If a parent has HD, the odds are 50-50 that any child of that parent will inherit the gene for HD. If you do NOT inherit the gene, then it cannot be passed to other generations.

Is hemophilia a sex-linked inheritance disease?
Yes, hemophilia is sex-linked.
Is hemophilia a pattern inheritance?
Hemophilia is a sex linked gene carried in the x chromosome.
What is the mode of inheritance for Edwards syndrome please help?
There is no mode of inheritance
What is the Inheritance pattern of hemophilia?
If the father has hemophilia and the mother is a carrier, sons will have a 50% chance of having hemophilia. Daughters will have a 50% chance of having hemophilia and a 50% chance of being a carrier. It is very rare for both parents to have these defective genes.If the father does not have hemophilia and the mother is a carrier, sons will have a 50% chance of having hemophilia. Daughters will have a 50% chance of being carriers.If the father has hemophilia and the mother has normal blood, all sons will be normal and all daughters will be carriers.
Royal hemophilia is the result of what inheritance?
Hemophilia is broken into three subcategories; Hemophilia A, Hemophilia B, and Hemophilia C. These subcategories designate a person as having a deficiency of one of three specific clotting proteins. Hemophilia A is the deficiency of the protein called Clotting Factor VIII. Hemophilia B is the deficiency of Clotting Factor IX. Hemophilia C is the deficiency of Clotting Factor XI. "Royal" hemophilia is simply a reference to Hemophilia B and is therefore a result of a deficiency in the Clotting Factor IX protein. It is sometimes called the royal disease because it has been known to have been passed through some royal families throughout history.
What is the least prevalent mode of inheritance?
x-linked dominant inheritance
Red-green colorblindness and hemophilia are two human genetic disorders that are caused by?
X-Linked Inheritance
Can anybody describe the mitochondrial mode of inheritance?
no
What is the mode of inheritance of turner's syndrome?
The mode of inheritance for Turner Syndrome is recessive. Hope I helped, I have to do a project on it anyway!!
How does the mode of inheritance affect the prediction and analysis of inheritance patterns?
There are lots of ways. A simple way is to do a Punnett Square. It's useful in studying independent inheritance patterns (multiple traits that are not on the same chromosome).
What is the mode of inheritance for cystic fibrosis?
Autosomal recessive.
What is the mode of inheritance for sickle-cell anemia?
autosomal recessive
