Under what condition can a female acquire an X recessive disorder?

Both X chromosomes must carry the recessive trait. Since males only have one X chromosome, it is much easier for males to have the recessive phenotype. Put another way, a female would have to receive an X chromosome with the recessive gene from both parents, which would mean the father already displays the recessive disorder.


What is one genetic disorder that is inherited as a recessive trait?

An example of a homozygous recessive genetic disorder is the eye color. the dominant eye color is brown but a homozygous recessive genetic disorder it's haze;, blue, gray, etc.


Is progeria a recessive or dominant disorder?

yes it is, only 1 mutation to the lmna gene is sufficent for someone to express traits regarding progeria


Is alkaptonuria caused by a recessive or dominant allele?

Phenylketonuria is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder. The enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase is necessary to metabolize phenylalanie, but when this enzyme doesnt work, phenylaline accumulates and is detected in the urine. The disease is detected during pregnancy, and if treated right away the newborn can develop normally. However, if left untreated, the brain will not develop properly.


What does recessive allele mean?

Recessive allele disorders are just as they sound - they are disorders that are a result of a prevalent recessive allele in one's genetic makeup. A recessive allele disorder will rarely occur since it is dependent on the crossing of two heterozygous parent cells, but it can lead to interesting consequences. An example of a recessive allele disorder is hemophilia - the body's inability to clot blood - and it has affected much of the European royalty in history, such as Queen Victoria of Great Britain.

What is the probability a woman heterozygous for an x-linked trait will have a son with a genetic disorder if the genetic disorder is recessive?

The probability would be 0.5 or 50%. A heterozygous woman will pass on the X chromosome with the recessive allele to 50% of her sons, and since the disorder is recessive, the son would only have the disorder if the X chromosome with the recessive allele is inherited from the mother.


Are alleles recessive?

Alleles can be either dominant or recessive. They can be identical or different for any given gene in a somatic cell, and can represent alternative forms of a gene.


Is aspergers a dominant or a recessive?

No. Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder


What is the probability that each child born to two carriers of a recessive disorder allele will have the disorder?

The child will have the disorder, only if the recessive allele from both the parents is transferred to the child. Therefore, the probability is 1/4.


How is adrenoleukodystrophy inherited?
