What name is given to someone who has a gene for a recessive genetic disorder but does not have the disorder?
Someone who has a gene for a recessive genetic disorder but does not exhibit the disorder is referred to as a "carrier." Carriers possess one copy of the mutated gene and one normal gene, which means they can pass the mutated gene to their offspring without showing symptoms of the disorder themselves.
If a genetic disorder is carried on a recessive gene which if any will have the disorder?
If a genetic disorder is carried on a recessive gene, offspring will only have the disorder if both parents have the recessive gene.
Can a person with a genetic disorder that has been corrected with gene transfer pass it on to its offspring?
Typically, once a genetic disorder has been corrected in an individual through gene transfer, they would not pass the disorder on to their offspring. The corrected genes would be present in the reproductive cells and would be passed on without the genetic disorder.
What is a Co-dominant alleles disorder?
One example is Huntington's Disease. With a recessive genetic disorder, to develop the disorder, you must inherit the gene from BOTH parents (odds, 1 in 4). With a dominant gene disorder, if you inherit the gene from ONE parent, you will develop that disorder (odds- 1 in 2).
Is there a genetic limit to strength?
There usually is not a genetic limit on strength unless there is a genetic disease or disorder.

Describe one sex-linked genetic disorder?

In humans the risk of passing on a genetic disorder to offspring can be assessed by?
You could make a pedigree which could identify carriers of a genetic disorder and individuals with the disorder. You could do blood tests to determine whether a person carries a gene for a particular genetic disorder. You could make a karyotype to determine whether there are any chromosomal abnormalities.
What are recessive genetic disorder?
When a genetic disorder is recessive, that means that two copies of the gene are necessary to have the trait or disorder. One is inherited from the mother, and one from the father. Disorders of this type include: cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Tay-Sachs disease.
Is Attention Deficit Disorder a genetic disorder?
It appears to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
What happens when you touch something?
you feel it... unless of course you have CIPA a rare genetic disorder that makes her unable to feel pain.
If you were a carrier of one allele for a certain recessive disorder how could genetic counseling help you prepare for the future?
Well, genetic counseling usually tells someone the consequences of their recessive disorder.
