उत्तर

Sutton and Boveri independently proposed the chromosomal theory of inheritance in 1902. The two workers found a distinctive connection between the transmission of Mendelian hereditary elements (genes) and chromosome activity during gamete production and fertilisation. They proposed that chromosomes carried Mendelian factors. During meiosis, the chromosome, not the genes, segregates and assorts independently before recombining in the zygote during fertilisation. Morgan, Sturtevant, and Bridges enlarged upon the chromosomal theory of inheritance.

Consider the following information and answer the question that follows:

  • Reshma’s mother is normal, but her father is suffering from PKU.
  • Reshma is suffering from PKU. She has two younger brothers who are identical twins; both are suffering from PKU. Reshma’s two elder sisters are normal.
  • Reshma marries Robert, who is normal. Reshma gives birth to a son named Jason who is normal. After some time, Reshma and Robert have two more children: a daughter with symptoms of PKU and a son without any symptoms of PKU.

Make a single pedigree chart using the above information to show the pattern of inheritance of phenylketonuria (PKU) in the family of Reshma.
