What is the probability of a child having cystic fibrosis if one of her parents was homozygous dominant and the other was a carrier for cystic fibrosis?
Assuming that each parent is a carrier for cystic fibrosis (has the genotype Ff), the probability that their second child will develop cystic fibrosis is one fourth. The probability doesn't change with the number of children they have. For each pregnancy, the chance that the child will have cystic fibrosis (have the genotype ff) is exactly the same.
What is the sequence of amino acid in cystic fibrosis?
The sequence of amino acids in cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene, which leads to the production of a faulty cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein. This mutated protein results in abnormal function, leading to the characteristic symptoms of cystic fibrosis such as thick mucus production.
Name two genetic disorders?
Two genetic disorders are Turner's syndrome and cystic fibrosis.
What is a genetic disorder that cannot be detected by karyotyping?
Karyotyping looks at the complete set of chromosomes. It can detect large-scale abnormalities, such as missing/extra chromosomes or whether large pieces of chromosomes have been rearranged. It cannot detect any of the many, many genetic disorders which are caused by a single gene, several genes or gene interactions. Examples of these would be cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell disease and dwarfism.
What kind of pathogen causes Cystic Fibrosis?
Cystic Fibrosis is caused by a genetic mutation in the CFTR gene. This mutation leads to the production of thick, sticky mucus in the lungs and other organs. It is not caused by a specific pathogen, but individuals with Cystic Fibrosis are more susceptible to respiratory infections.
Do people suffering with cystic fibrosis lack a chromosome or they have an extra one?
Neither. Cystic fibrosis is caused by genetic mutations on chromosome 7.
