You should research that disease using your textbook and one outside source. How is this disease inheritance different from the inheritance of a trait in part one?

/in /by

our paper will have two parts. The first portion requires that you make an analysis of five listed traits, that are each determined by a single gene. The second portionrequires that you choose a disease state from a list of illnesses that have a multifactorial pattern of causes.

Part one : Make an assessment of your personal traits, and record the genotype with description of phenotype in the table below. These traits are determined by single genes and have a dominant and recessive form:

  • Tongue Rolling, ability to roll tongue in a U shape, dominant (RR or Rr)
  • Hand clasping, Left over right thumb crosses more comfortably, dominant (LL or Ll)
  • Short big toe, second toe longer than big toe, dominant (TT or Tt)
  • Hair form, curly dominant (KK or Kk)
  • Mid-digital hair, hair on any middle section of finger, dominant (HH or Hh)

Please record your genotype and phenotype for each trait in the table:

Genotype Phenotype
   
   
 
 
   
   

Part two : The diseases listed below are common illnesses which combined affect more than 80% of Western society. You may wish to choose one that has affected your family, or you might want to choose a disease that affects a patient you have. These diseases are thought to have several influences which control their development, at least one of which is genetic. You should research that disease using your textbook and one outside source. How is this disease inheritance different from the inheritance of a trait in part one?

  • Alzheimer’s disease or dementia
  • Arthritis
  • Asthma
  • Birth defects
  • Cancer (breast, colon, lung, prostate, ovarian, and other cancers)
  • Diabetes
  • Depression
  • Heart disease or sudden heart attack
  • Other heart problems
  • High blood pressure and high cholesterol
  • Pregnancy losses, stillbirths, and miscarriages
  • Stroke or blood clots

Papers should be written using APA Style® format, including proper citation of sources. Resources on APA Style® may be found in the Course Overview. This paper should be 2-3 pages in length. See the Syllabus for specific grading criteria.

What type of aneuploidy is exhibited? (monosomic, disomic, trisomic, etc.) What conditions are associated with this type of aneuploidy? Which chromosomes are impacted?

/in /by

Aneuploidy

Aneuploidy is a condition in which the human cell has more than the normal 46 chromosomes- 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes along with 1 pair of sex chromosomes. Some examples of aneuploidy you may be familiar with includes Down’s Syndrome, but there are many other conditions associated with aneuploidy that you may not have heard of. Much of the reason for this is because of the variety in the levels of impact that aneuploidy can have on the manifestation of disease.

For this week’s forum review and select two genetic disorders that exhibit aneuploidy and compare and contrast them. Address the following concepts in your initial post:

  • What type of aneuploidy is exhibited? (monosomic, disomic, trisomic, etc.)
  • What conditions are associated with this type of aneuploidy?
  • Which chromosomes are impacted?
  • What is the impact of the aneuploidy? What is the severity?
  • What type of manifestations or signs and symptoms are associated?
  • Is it found equally in men and women? Are they fertile or infertile?
  • Does it impact physical characteristics like features, genitalia, mental capabilities, or health ?
  • What is the rate of incidence or prevalence? How often does it occur?
  • Are there risk factors for developing the aneuploidy?
  • Are there any other interesting characteristics that have been linked or suggested in regards to these examples of aneuploidy?

Avoid constructing your forum as a list with answers but you can organize your information into a table with a comprehensive comparison between the two examples of aneuploidy. You can also summarize in paragraph form, summarizing each and doing a comparison of their similarities and differences. Draw from your text and additional resources to complete your post and include in-text citations and a bibliography to support your findings.
