Yes. If either parent is a carrier of the gene that causes albinism then their child becomes a carrier as well. It is only when both parents have the gene for albinism that the child is born with this disorder.
If both parents carry the gene for albinism, which is an autosomal recessive disorder, there is a 25% chance their child will be affected by albinism, a 50% chance the child will be a carrier like the parents, and a 25% chance the child will neither have albinism nor be a carrier. Therefore, there is a 75% chance that their child will not have albinism, either being a carrier or completely unaffected.
Albinism is a recessively inherited disease. People with albinism has inherited 2 albinism genes. They got one gene from each parent.
I think no. It's caused by a recessive gene so if a person has albinism their genotype can only be recessive, recessive ---> AA (small a small a or whatever you call it). No other genotype will mean that person has Albinism, like if it has at least one big A, that means it's just a carrier of albinism.

Individuals with albinism typically have a recessive genetic trait, meaning they must inherit two copies of the albinism gene (aa) to express the condition. Therefore, the possible genotypes of the parents could be either both carriers (Aa), one carrier and one affected (Aa and aa), or both affected (aa). If both parents are carriers, there is a 25% chance for each child to be affected by albinism.
albinism is common.
What are the demographics of albinism:
Ocular Albinism is a type of albinism that affects mostly vision. It commonly comes with the lack of melanin in the skin that occurs in regular albinism.
The answer is no, if you cross a bald male with a carrier femal the son would not be bald. Unless he were on medication for cancer, or you shaved his head.
Albinism is a genetic condition caused by mutations in genes responsible for producing melanin, the pigment that gives color to skin, hair, and eyes. It is typically inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the recessive allele—one from each parent—to express the condition. If a person has only one copy of the recessive allele, they are considered a carrier but will not show symptoms of albinism. Thus, the presence of the recessive allele must be homozygous (two copies) for the phenotype of albinism to manifest.
