Answer:
Regarding Huntington's disease, it can be said that it is an inherited disease with an autosomal dominant character, so it is enough that one of the children inherits one of these characters to manifest this neurodegenerative disease, it is considered that the pattern is usually 50% of the total of children of sick parents can suffer it, however if both parents are carriers the number rises leading to 100% of the children affected, on the contrary if no parent has the dominant gene and are homozygous recessive, neither your children will suffer the disease
The possibilities are the following:
Parent 1, inheritance pattern: Hh * hh, the possible gametes for this cross-linking are H, H, h, h, offspring; Hh, Hh, hh, hh 50% of the children could be sick
Parents 2, inheritance pattern: hh * hh, the possible gametes for this cross-linking are h, h, h, h. the offspring will be; hh, hh. no sick child
Parent 3, inheritance pattern: HH * HH, the possible gametes for this cross-linking are H, H, H, H, the offspring will be HH, HH, all children may be sick, 100%
parents 4, inheritance pattern: Hh * Hh, the possible gametes for this cross-linking are h, H, h, H. the descendants will be HH, Hh, Hh, hh 50% of sick children
Parents 5, inheritance pattern: Hh * hh, the possible gametes for this interbreeding are H, h ,, offspring will be Hh all sick children
Parent 6, inheritance pattern: Hh * Hh the possible gametes for this cross-linking are H, h, the descendants will be Hh, the heterozygous descendants will have the disease.
