What term describes the inheritance of cysticfibrosis?
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease. That means that each parent has to carry a mutation and will have a 1 in 4 (25%) chance of having a child with CF. The previous answer is not correct. __________________________________________________________________ You inherit cystic fibrosis from either one parent or both. It is to do with genetic mapping. Cystic fibrosis is a recessive gene and can be carried by our parents even if they do not suffer from it, it's like in a carrier(someone who does not suffer from CF but still has the gene) the cystic fibrosis gene is 'hiding'. When we crete gametes (sperm and eggs) the genes have to split. For example your father could have the gene Ff and they would split and become F f. The capital F is the dominant gene and the small f is the recessive gene, in this case cystic fibrosis. When an egg is fertilised the separate gene from both parents join together. If a man and women have one child, and both parents had the recessive gene of CF then the likelihood of their first child having cystic fibrosis is high, 50% in fact. Here is a diagram which might help explain Parents Mother + Father Genotype (genes) Ff Ff Gametes(sperm+egg) F f F f Offspring FF ff 50% 50% I hope this helped a little. I didn't go into full detail becasue there is a lot more to it then what i have said and it is a lot more comlicated. If you can, try to go on a revision site which may help.
How many people suffer from chronic hunger that place them at high risk disease?

What disease do the Africans suffer from?
It is not accurate to suggest that all Africans suffer from a particular disease. Health conditions vary widely across the African continent, ranging from infectious diseases like malaria and HIV/AIDS to non-communicable diseases like diabetes and hypertension. Generalizing the health status of diverse populations in Africa can perpetuate stereotypes and misconceptions.
Which Babies who are born to mothers infected with this sexually transmitted disease may suffer from early infant pneumonia and conjunctivitis (pink eye).?

What do you call a person who does not suffer from a disease but passes it on to their children?
A carrier.
What is the likeilhood that a person who has two parents with the disease will be a carrier of defective gene?
A child has a 25 percent chance of inheriting a disorder if each parent holds a single gene for a recessive disease. This is because the chance of getting a dominant gene that will mask the recessive gene is very high.
What could you suffer from if you are obese?
An increased chance of heart disease and diabetes.

If both parents have cystic fibrosis what is the probability that one child will have it?
It depends weather or not the woman carries the cystic fibrosis alele. If she carries a recessive CF allele, then the chances of her and the man having a child with CF is 1/4 But if she doesn't carry it then the child wont have CF but could carry the disorder as a recessive allele. again, the chances of that are 1/4.
Can you get Celiac disease?
You may get it from your parents: if one of your parents have it - or both of them - it is more likely you'll inherit the disease. You could to see if your parents have it with a blood test. An individual can develop the celiac condition at any stage of their life. Genetics my friend. I actually have it myself, none of my close relatives suffer with it but my aunty does. It sucks.
