~nerd~ Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 How can I explain the genetic basis of a disorder that occurs with equal frequency among chicks and dudes and that doesn't follow basic patterns of Mendel inheritance??????
DrZoidberg Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 An autosomal-linked disorder (if rule out sex chromosome linkage due to 1:1 sex ratio) following non-Mendelian inheritance patterns. Again for more detail what inheritance pattern does this disorder follow?
Bluenoise Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 How about a mitochondrial dissorder. That fits really well. Non mendelian inheritance and equal frequency between the sexes.
Dak Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 I believe trisomy would explain it, but it would be less likely. see trisomy 21, a cause of down's syndrome
