In goats, the gene for coat color is on an autosome and light brown color is dominant to black. A light brown male is mated to a

black female, producing a black kid (baby goat). If they produce another kid, could it be light brown? If so, what are the chances of it being light brown? Group

Autosomal dominant condition occurs when alleles of genes present on chromosomes in the autosomes (somatic) mask the effect of the other allele.

They can produce a light brown kid and the chances of producing this is 50%.

  • Light brown color is dominant to black. A light brown male is mated to a black female, producing a black kid.
  • For the two to produce a black kid which is in the recessive condition, the male has to be heterozygous for the condition (Bb).

Let light brown be (BB or Bb)   and black be (bb)

Parents :                   B b     x      b b

Offspring genotype:      Bb      bb

Ratio:                               1    :     1  (50%)

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer: DF508 mutation. A Genetic, Hereditary, Autosomal and Recessive Mutation.

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessive autosomal lethal disease, it is most common on Caucasoid populations. Its diagnosis is suggested by the clinical features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, persistent pulmonary colonization (particularly with mucoid Pseudomonas strains), meconium ileus, pancreatic insufficiency with or familiarity history of the disease. The FC gene is large, with about 250 Kb of genomic DNA, 27 exons representing about 5% of genomic DNA; encodes a 6.5 kb transcribed mRNA. This mRNA is transcribed into a protein of 1480 amino acid called CFTR (Regulator Transmembrane Conductance Cystic Fibrosis). When a three-base pair deletion, adenosine-thymine-thymine (ATT) identified in the CFTR gene, exon 10, it results in the loss of a single amino acid phenylalanine at position 508 of the protein. This mutation is called DF508; “D” stands for deletion and “F” for phenylalanine amino acid.
