How are autosomal disorders passed down?

the disorder is usually either autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant. they are passed down from the parents to the next generation. autosomal reccessive diseases only are when one parent gives one reccessive allele and the other parent gives the other reccessive allele. A dominant autosomal disorder can be inherited with one or two of the alleles.


What type of inheritance pattern (are the A and B alleles to each other (Autosomal dominant-Regular dominant-recessive relationship, X linked, co-dominant, incomplete dominant)?

Incomplete dominance

Is it true that a defective allele always recessive and a normal allele always dominant?

No, a defective allele is not always recessive, and a normal allele is not always dominant. The relationship between alleles can be more complex and dependent on specific genetic mechanisms. Dominance and recessiveness are general terms used to describe the relationship between two alleles at a specific gene locus.


Are smile dimples controlled by a recessive allele?

Nope, the alleles for smile dimples are actually dominant, not recessive.


Huntington's disease is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects the nervous system If a man is heterozygous for the alleles that cause the condition and has children with a woman who lacks?

the man has huntingtons disease


Hurlington disease is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects the nervous system if a man is heterozygous for the alleles that cause the condition and has children with a woman who lacks then?

If a man who is heterozygous for the Hurlington disease alleles has children with a woman who does not have the alleles, there is a 50% chance that each of their children will inherit the disease allele. Since Hurlington disease is autosomal dominant, inheriting just one copy of the disease allele will result in the individual being affected by the disorder.


Are organisms with alleles BB recessive or dominant?

Organisms with alleles BB are considered homozygous dominant. This means that the dominant allele (B) is expressed in the phenotype. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals.


How are co dominant alleles expressed?
