The pedigree below traces the inheritance of alkaptonuria biochemical disorder Affected individuals indicated here by the shaded circles and squares, are unable t0 metabolize a substance called alkapton; which colors the urine and stains body tissues.A Does alkaptonuria appear to be caused by a dominant allele or by a recessive allele? Explain.B Indicate the genotypes of all of the individuals in the pedigree? (in some cases; more than one genotype may be possible indicate both possibilities)

SOLVED:Alkaptonuria is a metabolic disonder in which affected persons produce black urine. Alkaptonuria results from an allele (a) that is recessive to the allele for normal metabolism (A) . Sally has normal metabolism, but her brother has alkaptonuria. Sally's father has alkaptonuria and her mother has normal metabolism. a. Give the genotypes of Sally, her mother, her father, and her brother. b. If Sally's parents have another child, what is the probability that this child will have alkaptonuri

The pedigree below traces the inheritance of alkaptonuria, a biochemical disorder. Affected individuals, indicated here by the colored circles and squares, are unable to metabolize a substance called alkapton, which colors the urine and stains body tissues. Does alkaptonuria appear to be caused by a dominant allele or by a recessive allele? Fill in the genotypes of the individuals whose genotypes can be deduced. What genotypes are possible for each of the other individuals? | Numerade

SOLVED:A recently married man and woman discover that each had an uncle with alkaptonuria, otherwise known as "black urine disease," a rare disease caused by an autosomal recessive allele of a single gene. They are about to have their first baby. What is the probability that their child will have alkaptonuria?
