An image with it. I have 5 questions out of 27 I do not get

Tranquility:

You see that the father is affected and he passes it down to his daughter and son. If it was an x-linked inheritance pattern, would his son have been able to get it?

Tranquility:

Remember, the father only passes down the Y chromosome to the son. So if it was X-linked, could the trait have been passed down to his son?

Tranquility:

For dominant (or autosomal dominant) inheritance, you only need one parent to be a carrier and you'll have someone in each generation who is affected. For recessive (or autosomal recessive) inheritance, both parents need to be carriers for the child to be affected.

TaitlynCroft:

Thanks
