  • In a pedigree chart, how are different individuals represented?


    • Squares: Males
    • Circles: Females
    • Filled symbols: Affected individuals
    • Half-filled symbols: Carriers
  • What pattern of inheritance is suggested by vertical transmission of a disease trait in a pedigree?


    Autosomal dominant inheritance.

  • What pattern of inheritance is excluded when male-to-male transmission of a trait is observed?


    X-linked inheritance.

  • What is meant by the genetic concept of incomplete penetrance?


    An individual carries a pathogenic mutation but does not develop the phenotype, or develops it only later in life.

  • What is pseudodominance in the context of genetic inheritance?


    A situation where a recessive disorder appears to follow a dominant inheritance pattern due to a high carrier frequency within a population.

  • How is an individual defined as an obligate carrier in a pedigree?


    An individual who has transmitted a disease trait to their offspring, even if they show no symptoms or the condition is lethal.

  • In a pedigree, what does the presence of two lines connecting individuals represent?


    Consanguinity.

  • For a recessive disorder, what is the probability that an unaffected sibling of an affected individual is a carrier?


    \(2/3\)

  • What kind of disorder is SMA1 (Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1)?


    A recessive, genetic neuromuscular disorder characterized by the progressive wasting of muscles and the loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord.

  • What is meant by recurrence risk in genetic counseling?


    The probability of having a child with the same disorder.

  • What proportion of their genome do siblings share on average?


    \(1/2\)

  • What proportion of their genome do first cousins share on average?


    \(1/8\)

  • Why does consanguinity increase the risk of recessive disorders?


    Because consanguineous individuals are more likely to share the same recessive pathogenic variant inherited from a common ancestor, increasing the probability of their offspring being homozygous for the mutation.
