Congenital heart defects, cleft lip and palate, and Type 2 Diabetes are examples of conditions that follow a multifactorial pattern of inheritance. This means they result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors interacting together.

Why do you think temperature changes follow this unique pattern?

If you want to ask questions about "this unique pattern", then I suggest that you make sure that there is a pattern that follows!


Is huntington disease multifactorial inheritance?

No. It's an inherited disease. The gene is dominant so basically if you have it, 50% of your children will inherit it as well which can particularly devastating since the symptoms don't appear until the 30's or 40's. So theoretically you can have children that are teenagers by the time you find out, and 50% of them will become afflicted as well. ERROR, each of your children has a 50% chance of inheriting the gene. ALSO, there is Jhd, where children can get it... usually when HD is inherited from the father... but not always. Children as young as 2 have been known to have it. Sadly I have known too many children to die of Jhd.


What are multifactorial characteristics?

Multifactorial characteristics refer to traits or conditions that are influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors. These characteristics do not follow a simple inheritance pattern, as they result from the interplay of various genes, each contributing a small effect, combined with environmental influences such as lifestyle and exposure to certain conditions. Common examples include height, skin color, and susceptibility to diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Understanding these characteristics is essential in fields like genetics, medicine, and psychology, as they reflect the complexity of biological and behavioral traits.


Is cleft lip and palate an autosomal or sex linked disorder?

Cleft lip and palate is not a sex-linked disorder. It is a common birth defect that occurs due to both genetic and environmental factors, with a multifactorial inheritance pattern involving multiple genes as well as environmental influences.
