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.
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.
Two genetic disorders are Turner's syndrome and cystic fibrosis.

No, cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, not by the presence of extra chromosomes. Individuals with cystic fibrosis inherit two faulty copies of the CFTR gene, one from each parent, which leads to the production of a defective CFTR protein that affects the movement of salt and water in and out of cells.
Sure! When both parents are heterozygous carriers (Cc) for cystic fibrosis, the Punnett Square would result in a 25% chance of having a child with cystic fibrosis (cc), a 50% chance of having a child who is a carrier (Cc), and a 25% chance of having a child who is not a carrier and does not have the disease (CC).
What is cystic fibrosis? Cystic fibrosis is a life threatening disease.
cystic fibrosis (:cystic fibrosis :)cystic fibrosis ^-^
Yes, girls can get cystic fibrosis.
Is a carrier of cystic fibrosis
To found Cystic Fibrosis, watch Princess and I!!!
No, there is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis.
No. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease.

No. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic 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.
Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disorder, 2 parents have a CF gene, if their offspring inherits that trait they will have Cystic Fibrosis.
