If both parents have the gene, the chances are 25% of having a child with Cystic Fibrosis. The male and females x genes are affected by it and only half of it. So when the parents mate and they are going to have a baby, the chances are 25%

What is inductive reasoning in Math?

Inductive reasoning is used to seek strong evidence for the truth of the conclusion. Looking at different pictures side by side then trying to figure out the pattern is inductive reasoning.


What does Deductive reasoning use?

Deductive reasoning uses logical principles to derive a specific conclusion from general premises. It involves moving from a pattern that is always true to a specific conclusion that must be true if the premises are true. This type of reasoning is often associated with mathematical and scientific methods of inquiry.


What kind of pattern of inheritance of cystic fibrosis?

Inheritance - Autosomal recessive, requires mutations on both alleles - A single gene on chromosome 7, which encodes for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator - There are over 1000 different mutations for this gene - The most common is Delta F508, which makes up 67% of all mutations in the Caucasian population - Caucasians most effected


What is inductive reasoning moves from what to what?

What inductive reasoning creates a conclusion that's likely?

Inductive reasoning derives a likely conclusion based on a pattern or trend observed in specific instances. It moves from specific observations to generalizations, assuming that what holds true for the observed cases will likely hold true for similar cases in the future.

What is the inheritance pattern or cystic fibrosis?

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. Heterozygous carriers (those who have inherited only one copy of the altered gene) are asymptomatic (do not experience symptoms). Two of these altered genes must be present for CF to appear. This means that if both parents are CF carriers, their offspring will express CF symptoms only if the child inherits one defective copy of the CFTR gene from each parent.
