Question

Do either of your diseases in part A have the same pattern of inheritance as the model colorblindness mutation you made?How do you know?

Answer 1

Answer:

Autosomal dominant pattern.

Explanation:

If the pattern of inheritance is same in the disease just like the model of colorblindness mutation so we can say that the disease has autosomal dominant pattern because the colorblindness mutation also occur due to the autosomal dominant pattern. Sometimes the disease is also inherited from their parents through genetically. So both diseases and the model colorblindness mutation are considered same if both have the same pattern of inheritance.
