What gene or chromosome is mutated in the hemophilia disorder?
There are two types of hemophilia. Type A: A mutation in the factor VIII gene. Type B: A mutation in the IX gene.
Is hemophilia a recessive or dominant trait?
Hemophelia is a recessive trait. By Aline Garcia
What is one of a mutation that produces a harmful trait?
Hemophilia.
Example of sex-limited trait in animals?
Hemophilia.
Why is hemophilia considered to be a sex trait?
It is carried on the X chromosome.
Is hemophilia a dominantrecessiv or a sex linked trait?
Sexlinked and recessive.
Is hemophilia a sex-limited or a sex-influenced trait?
Hemophilia, along with color blindness, is a sex-linked recessive trait. Hemophilia is when a person lacks a clotting factor in the blood. This results in the decreased ability to have blood clots. This can be dangerous because a person may internally or externally bleed to death. People with hemophilia must take clotting factors (by needle injection) frequently throughout their lives in order to live. As it is to be known, mothers are the carriers of these kind of traits. If a mother has the hemophilia trait, that means that her son will have hemophilia.
If both parents are carriers what will the child be?
When a recessive trait is inherited from both parents, it will be expressed. If the trait is hemophilia, the child will be a hemophiliac.
What is the mutation in hemophilia?
Hemophilia is a mutation of either of the genes that make factor VII or IX. Hemophilia A is a mutation of the F8 gene and Hemophilia B is the mutation of the F9 gene. Both of these mutations occur on the sex-linked X chromosome.
Can people with hemophilia have children?
Yes, there is nothing stopping a person with hemophilia from having children. There are several concerns a person with hemophilia should be aware of though when the time comes to have children. The first, and most obvious would be the chance for blood loss and uncontrolled bleeding during the birthing process if the mother is the one with hemophilia. While this is something to be aware of, it is also something that can be easily prepared for and overcome. In this situation, the chances of having sons and daughter who inherit the traits for hemophilia is very likely. If the mother had the genes for hemophilia on both X chromosomes, all of her children will inherit the trait (daughters may or may not be symptomatic while all sons will be). If the mother only had the trait on one of her two X chromosomes, then there is a 50% each child born would receive the trait. Since the trait for hemophilia is located on the X chromosome, and males have only one of these X chromosomes, all daughters of a male with hemophilia will receive the genes for hemophilia from him while any sons he has will not receive the gene.
How does a person inherit hemophilia and is it dominant or recessive?
It is a sex-linked recessive trait inherited from the mother.
Is hemophilia recessive or dominant?
Hemophilia ia a sex linked disorder that is normally recessive. There are many cases however where trait shows "incomplete or shared" dominance. In these cases the females will have lowered percentages of the clotting factor proteins and may for all intents and purposes be considered mild or moderate hemophiliacs themselves.
