Many different types of disorders can be found if multiple alleles occur, for example, if your have 3 number 21 chromosomes, then you will have a disorder called "Down syndrome", so the answer is "Yes".

Genetic disorders are caused by?

Genetic disorders are caused by abnormalities in an individual's DNA, either through mutations or changes in the genes. These abnormalities can be inherited from parents or can occur spontaneously during a person's lifetime. Genetic disorders can affect various aspects of health and development.


What evidence is there that the long and round alleles did not become blended?

A number of genetic disorders are caused when an individual inherits two recessive alleles for a single-gene trait. Recessive genetic disorders include Albinism, Cystic Fibrosis, Galactosemia, Phenylketonuria (PKU), and Tay-Sachs Disease. Other disorders are also due to recessive alleles, but because the gene locus is located on the X chromosome, so that males have only one copy (that is, they are hemizygous), they are more frequent in males than in females.


Is tay-sachs caused by codominant alleles?

No, autosomal recessive

Which alleles is the recessive alleles?

Recessive alleles are alleles that are masked or overshadowed by dominant alleles. In a heterozygous genotype, the recessive allele does not show its effects. Only in a homozygous recessive genotype does the recessive allele manifest its trait.


What combinations of alleles could produce a trait controlled by a recessive alleles?

recessive + recessive or tt


What is the result of two recessive alleles joined?

When two recessive alleles are joined together in an individual, the individual will display the recessive trait associated with those alleles. This is because recessive alleles only express themselves when a dominant allele is not present.


What type of alleles mask recessive alleles?

Dominant alleles :-)


What can be dominant or recessive?

Alleles can be dominant or recessive


Is sickle cell anemia and cystic fibrosis caused by recessive alleles?

im not really sure, but i think it is.


How are Dominant and recessive alleles are represented in Punnet Square?

Dominant alleles are shown by a capital letter and recessive alleles are lowercase letters.
