Question

Compare and contrast all the distinctive features that set each of these types apart from each other.

Types:

1. Autosomal Recessive
2. Incomplete Dominance
3. Sex-linked Recessive
4. Recessive Epistasis

Answer 1

1. Autosomal Recessive- In autosomal recessive, both males and females are affected and for a person to be diseased, two copies of the recessive allele are needed.
2. Incomplete Dominance-In incomplete dominate, one allele is incompletely dominant over another. Example- flower color in snapdragon.
3. Sex-linked Recessive-In sex-linked, the disease affects one sex more than another. It is recessive as two copies of the recessive allele.
4. Recessive Epistasis-In these two allele is to be inherited together to mask the effect of the second gene.
