The chances are one half. You will most likley have 2 children without the gene, and 2 with one gene. Since the normal parent has the dominate allele, the Cystic Fiborisis will not be present.
Why is it that only one person in every 900 has cystic fibrosis?
because some people may be a carrier and some people may be unaware that they have it.
What does a low eosinophils indicate?
low level eosinophile count is not possible since the reference range is about 0-1% of the white blood cells. However, is the WBC on a low level, then of course the eo's too. Raised levels of eo's are connected to allergic reactions

Why do some people resort to illeism?
Some people turn to illeism, the act of speaking in third person, as a sign of being humble. Illeism is also used to enforce the importance of the group. It can also be used to create a larger impact like in political speeches.
What personality changes does cystic fibrosis cause?
Why doesn't gene therapy cure cystic fibrosis?
Although a normal gene is introduced into a
patient's surface cells in the lung, these cells are
not the ones that need to produce the highest
levels of the missing transport protein. The virus
carrying the normal gene cannot reach the deep
lung cells where the normal gene is most needed.
How does a high consentration of salt affect cells?
You are looking at a hypertonic solution, where there is a higher amount of salt outside the cell than there is inside the cell. The water inside the cell will diffuse out, which causes the cell to shrink. This is why your fingers shrivel in the bathtub. The opposite will happen in a hypotonic solution. The cell has more salt than the outside, and the water will diffuse into the cell, causing it to swell.
It is a incurable condition that some people are born with. It is where they have slightly thicker and stickier mucus in their lungs. They have to do something called Physio and they do this 2 times a day. It helps their breathing, it is exercising their lungs. One of the very few positive notes is that they have to have extra fat e.g. they cook fish fingers with oil is a frying pan instead of grilling it. They take a pill every time they eat fat. This digests the fat. The last point is that most people with cystic fibrosis don't live over 30. Doctors a still finding a cure.
Two inherited diseases other than huntingtons and cystic fibrosis?
thought i would be nice and put 10 :) these are the most common
Can you get life insurance for cystic fibrosis sufferes?
I am an independent life insurance agent. We recently lost my best friends wife to cystic fibrosis. I have done much research and have found one company that will insure someone with cystic fibrosis. All of the information is on a website I have created.

If both parents are carriers then the child has a 25% chance of having cystic fibrosis.
If one parent has CF and the other the other was just a carrier then the child has a 50% chance of having CF.
If one parent has CF and the other has two normal genes then there is no chance of the child having CF.
If one parent is a carrier and the other has two normal genes then there is no chance of the child having CF.
If both parents have CF then there is a 100% chance that the child will also have CF.
What does a CFTR gene stand for?
CFTR gene stands for Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator gene. It is responsible for encoding a protein that regulates the flow of ions across cell membranes, particularly in the lungs and digestive system. Mutations in this gene can lead to cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder affecting the lungs and digestive system.
Do you need one or two parents to inherit cystic fibrosis?
you need two parents to get it but one parent to become a carrier.
You need two parents with one of the alleles to inherit it but if you have one parent with the allele you might be a carrier. If you have two parents with the allele it does not mean that you will definitely have it. This is because the allele for cystic fibrosis is recessive.
Offspring of someone with altered lung cells will inherit the normal CFTR gene.
Snail or slug with a flat head and left a slimy trail streak down back?
It is a Shovel-headed garden worm, Bipalium Kewense. It has a long soft body with black stripes running down its back. It is carnivorous and feeds off earth worms. For a better description go to http://www.amonline.net.au/factsheets/shovelworm.htm
What the diffrenc between Tarlove systic and prenural cystic and subarconoid cystic?
Tarlov cysts are fluid-filled sacs that occur at the nerve roots in the sacral region of the spine, often causing pain and neurological symptoms. Perineural cysts, on the other hand, are typically found along the spinal nerve roots and may not always cause symptoms. Subarachnoid cysts are located within the subarachnoid space, which surrounds the brain and spinal cord, and are usually associated with cerebrospinal fluid. While all three types of cysts involve nerve structures, they differ in their locations and potential impact on neurological function.
Do Black people have cystic fibrosis?
Very rarely. But some do. The incidence appears to be 1 out of over 15,000 babies born.
Can you die from cystic fibrosis?
You can and you can't die from Cystic Fibrosis........ like if your a healthy case of cystic fibrosis you can't really die but you still can ....and if you asking well how you know......I know because I have cystic fibrosis
A carrier. This is usually a disease that requires two parts of a gene. The faulty gene is the recessive gene, and the healthy gene is the dominant gene. If two people with one dominant and one recessive gene each have a child they have a 25% chance of producing a child with two dominant genes, thereby resulting in that child having the disease.
Why do males with Cystic Fibrosis have a very small chance of having kids?
because 95% of men with cystic fibrosis are sterile
