2. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-?linked recessive trait. The following pedigree shows the occurrence of this disorder in an extended family. Provide the phenotypes and genotypes of all the individuals in the pedigree.
3. Lesh-?Nyhan syndrome is an X-?linked recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of a certain enzyme known as HPRT. Lack of HPRT leads to a build up a uric acid in the body, resulting in moderate mental retardation, poor muscle control, and the formation of crystals in the joints, kidneys, and nervous system.
