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.

Firstly, if the condition is recessive, both the man and the child with the condition must have the genotype tt. The mother must have the genotype Tt. This is because if she had TT, all of the children would be Tt and not have the condition. If she were tt, she would have the condition as well. Therefore if the father has tt and the mother has Tt, the other 3 children who do not have the condition must all have the genotype Tt. So: Mother - Tt Father - tt Affected child - tt Other children - Tt
