It depends on the case.

It could be passed down to the children if the disorder is genetic, otherwise it would probley stay with the same generation.

Is a disorder know as a dominant or recessive?

A disorder can be either dominant or recessive, depending on the specific genetic inheritance pattern. Dominant disorders only require one copy of the mutated gene to be expressed, while recessive disorders require two copies.


Many serious diseases can be passed from parent to offspring through genes. In which case given below is a recessive disease NOT able to be passed on?

A recessive disease is not able to be passed on if both parents are carriers of the gene but do not express the disease themselves. In this case, the offspring would only inherit the disease if they receive two copies of the recessive gene, one from each parent. If the child inherits only one recessive gene and one dominant gene, they will be a carrier but will not exhibit the disease. Thus, the disease can only be passed on if both parents contribute the recessive allele.


How are autosomal disorders passed down?

the disorder is usually either autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant. they are passed down from the parents to the next generation. autosomal reccessive diseases only are when one parent gives one reccessive allele and the other parent gives the other reccessive allele. A dominant autosomal disorder can be inherited with one or two of the alleles.


How can a parent learn the risks of having a child with a genetic disorder?

A parent can learn the risks of having a child with a genetic disorder by looking at their own history. A genetic disorder is... da da da da! Genetic! so the traits of this disorder would be passed down through the generations. If both parents have family members with the trait or if the disorder is a dominant trait then there is a high chance of the disorder being passed down to the child. If the trait is recessive and only one parent has the genetic disorder in their family history then there are some pretty low chances of it being passed along to the child. Even if the trait is recessive, if both parents have the diorder in their history then there is about a 50% chance of the child having the disorder.

an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that having an affected offspring requires both unaffected parents to be carriers. Parents who carry the disorder will have a 25% risk of having an affected offspring in subsequent pregnancies.

What are the chances of inheriting a blue eye recessive gene from both parents?

The chances of inheriting a blue eye recessive gene from both parents is 25, as both parents must carry the recessive gene in order for it to be passed on to their child.


What is a genetic disorder that a child can inherit from his parent?

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that a child can inherit from their parents. It is caused by inheriting two copies of a defective gene, one from each parent, and affects the lungs and digestive system. Symptoms usually appear in early childhood.

Is disprexia a ressessive trait?

Dyspraxia is not a trait that is passed down in a simple Mendelian recessive or dominant manner like a genetic disorder. It is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that can be influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
