Huntington Disease is an autosomal recessive condition. Which percentage shows the genotype probability when a female with Huntington disease
mates with a male that is heterozygous for the Huntington trait? *
A.
B.
hh
hh
Hh
hh
Hh
C.
D.
Hh
HH

The options to this question are unclear but the answer is: Hh, Hh, hh, hh i.e Hh (50%), hh (50%).

Explanation:

This question involves a single Gene coding for the possession or not of Huntington's disease in humans. The disease is said to be an autosomal recessive condition i.e. it only happens in a recessive state (hh).

According to this question, when a female with Huntington disease (hh) mates with a male that is heterozygous (Hh) for the Huntington trait, the following gametes will be produced by each parent.

hh - h and h

Hh - H and h

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following genotypic combination of offsprings will be produced.

Hh, Hh, hh and hh

Hh = 50%

hh = 50%

wheres the answers ?

evidence and logical support is essential for a scientist to do in order to maintain credibility. this is because no one can believe without any logic and without any evidence.hence a scientist can maintain credibility by proving himself and by answering logically so experiments prove very beneficial. logical hypothesis give conclusion which is acceptable. therefore, there are two main factors to maintain credibility by a scientist is evidence and logical support.
