Pregunta 1

Pregunta
What is a compound heterozygote?
Respuesta

  • False

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
What type of disease is being passed on in this pedigree?
Respuesta
  • Autosomal dominant
  • Autosomal recessive
  • X-Linked recessive
  • X-linked dominant

Pregunta 11

Pregunta

Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 12

Pregunta
Which of the sex chromosomes can carry a disorder?
Respuesta
  • X
  • Y

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
Which type of inheritance is shown by the pedigree pictured?
Respuesta
  • Autosomal dominant
  • X-Linked recessive
  • Autosomal recessive
  • Y Linked

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
Chromosome defects most often effect fertility
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta
Why would a Y-linked disorder effect fertility?
Respuesta
  • Y chromosome genes most often effect sex organs
  • The Y chromosome damages genes for hormones more easily than any other gene

  • The father is usually the carrier
  • Effects mainly males
  • Effects mainly females
  • Males cannot be born to unaffected parents

Pregunta 18

Pregunta
A father will an X-linked recessive disease will mean that ALL his daughters are carriers
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 21

Pregunta
A father with an X-linked dominant will infect all his daughters
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 22

Pregunta
Of females and males, who are effected more mildly/variably by x-linked dominant disorders?

Respuesta
  • It is most likely to occur in the young
  • It is most likely to occur as you age
  • Caused by an MeCP2 fault
  • Caused by haploinsufficiency
  • Caused by Pseudodominance
  • Caused by faulty gene expression

Pregunta 24

Pregunta
Why is Genomic Imprinting a thing?
Respuesta
  • Some genes are selectively expressed from the maternal or paternal allele
  • Some genes are more dominant depending which parent it is expressed from
  • Maternal genes are more likely to cause disorders than paternal genes

Pregunta 25

Pregunta
Disorders due to genomic imprinting are caused when differential expression is lost
