A particular recessive genetic disorder is polygenic. It is caused by 2 separate, unlinked genes (Genes A and B). To have the di
sorder, a person must be homozygous recessive for BOTH of these genes. A mother is heterozygous for Gene A and homozygous recessive for Gene B. The father is heterozygous for gene Gene A and homozygous dominant for Gene B. If they have 2 children, what is the probability that 1 of them will have this disorder
According to this principal, if a recessive gene for tallness is paired with another recessive gene for tallness, the organism is categorized as a homozygous recessive in terms of its genotype.
