Those mutated genes are most commonly recessive. Females have two X chromosomes so they can have a chromosome with the mutated gene and one with the healthy gene. The healthy gene is dominant so the disease won't manifest, and the woman is only a carrier. Males have only one X chromosome and an Y chromosome. If they have the mutated gene on the X chromosome they won't have another X chromosome with the healthy gene.

To summarize, men can't be carriers and they only need one copy of the mutated X-linked gene while women need two copies of the mutated gene.

"Assume that a man and a woman are phenotypically normal, but the woman is heterozygous for a pericentric inversion on chromosom
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pericentric inversion results in chromosome have extra copies of some genes while some genes do not have copies. It can result in slow growth rate.

If a man is heterozygous of pericentric and a woman is heterozygous of pericentric although they do not show symptoms there is 25% chance that their offspring will have it and 50% chance of them being a carrier.

T t × T t will give TT T t T t t t

If the father is not heterozygous of it but the mother is heterozygous they have 0% chance of having it and 50% chance of being heterozygous a carrier of the disorder

T t × TT will give TT TT T t T t

Explain why the chromosomes in the haploid cells that are produced by meiosis I look different than those produced by meiosis II
scoundrel [369]
In meiosis one, homologous chromosomes only separate resulting in two cells. In meiosis II, the cells divide further, separating sister chromatids and resulting in four cells. So the cells are just even smaller with less chromosomes in each one.
