What Is a purpose for which a pedigree chart might be prepared

Biology
1 answer:
puteri [66]3 years ago
4 0
Pedigree charts are great for determining if there is any genetic link to the disease of an affected patient. Or what type of inheritance patter there is.

Sex linked diseases would affect mainly the male line & daughters would most often be carriers.

Autosomal recessive would mean that the affected patients would need to inherit the disease from 2 carrier parents that are typically asymptomatic.

Autosomal dominant would show affected children coming from affected parents. It only takes 1 gene to trigger the disease.

Hope this helps!

The tenant farmer pays a certain amount of rent per year that is invariable whether they have a good crop or not. A sharecropper pays with a share of the crop harvested regardless of the quality or quantity of the crop. In other words, the tenant farmer pays a fixed amount for the land, the sharecropper pays a percentage of their harvested crop which can vary year to year.</span>
