Cystic Fibrosis is recessive. If you have one CF gene and one non-CF gene, you will be a carrier but not have CF.
It is autosomal recessive and it is not a disorder! Cystic Fibrosis is a disease.
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease.
Dominant - everything is dominant apart from diseases such as malaria, cystic fibrosis
No, cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder.
The term that best describes the inheritance of cystic fibrosis is that it is genetic. Cystic fibrosis is caused by recessive alleles. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease.
Yes, cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease.
The term that best describes the inheritance of cystic fibrosis is that it is genetic. Cystic fibrosis is caused by recessive alleles. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease.
hey I'm not positive but I believe that Cystic Fibrosis is autosomal. My reasonning for this is that there seems to be an equal number of females that have cystic fibrosis as there are males. I AM NOT POSITIVE.
No. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease.
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease. A+ neuromuscular disease
phenotypes are decided by the alleles for that particular characteristic, by a dominant or two recessive alleles. For example, cystic fibrosis has a recessive allele so the phenotype of cystic fibrosis would only appear if there were two of the recessive allele, one from each parent, were present. A heterozygous carrier of the cystic fibrosis allele would show the phenotype of not having cystic fibrosis. So to determine the phenotype simply find out which allele is dominant and find what alleles each parent has the the probability of each phenotype can be calculated
Cystic Fibrosis is an example of a disease inherited as an autosomal recessive genetic disorder. Both parents of a baby who has Cystic Fibrosis have one abnormal recessive gene and one normal dominant gene and are therefore, Cystic Fibrosis carriers. Carriers are said to be heterozygous because they contain one normal copy of the gene and one abnormal copy. A baby who inherits cystic fibrosis has inherited the abnormal gene from both parents and is therefore said to be homozygous recessive.
