It contains the renal corpuscles and the renal tubules except for parts of the loop of Henle which descend into the renal medulla. It also contains blood vessels and cortical collecting ducts. The renal cortex is the part of the kidney where ultrafiltration occurs.

The only people with Rh negative blood are people who have inherited two recessive alleles for this trait. But some people who a
zubka84 [21]

The difference is due to the inheritance pattern. Blood type needs two recessive alleles to express Rh-. Color-blindness needs only one.

<h3>What are the blood type and Color-blindness inheritance patterns?</h3>

⇒ Blood type is coded by a diallelic Rh gene that expresses complete dominance.

The allele Rh+ dominates over the allele Rh-.

Genotyopes and Phenotypes are as follows,

  • Individuals Rh+Rh+ express the possitive phenotype
  • Individuals Rh+Rh- express the possitive phenotype
  • Individuals Rh-Rh- express the negative phenotype.

To express Rh-, a person must inherit<u> two</u><u> recessive alleles</u> from their parents.

⇒ Color-blindness is an X-linked condition coded by a recessive allele.

As most sex-linked genes, it is transmitted together with the X chromosome.

The phenotype depends on the number of recessive alleles and the sex of the person.

Genotyopes and Phenotypes are as follows,

  • X⁺X⁺ women have normal sight.
  • X⁻X⁻ women are completely color-blinded
  • X⁺X⁻ women are partially color-blinded.
  • X⁺Y Men are not color-blinded
  • X⁻Y Men are color blinded.

In this case, only one recessive allele is enough to express the affection.

In conclusion, Blood type needs two recessive alleles to express Rh-. Color-blindness needs only one recessive allele.
