Is angelman syndrome dominant or recessive and is it autosomal or sex-linked??
Answers: Still studying the genetic link to angelman's syndrome. From the research I have done, and who knows how much information on the internet is correct but I believe it is a sex-linked gene.
This diseases has variables, but a mutation of an autosomal gene seems the most common. It usually occurs in females.

dominate traits can be expressed in the heterozygous gene state. This means if you have one dominant and one recessive gene the dominant will prevail. ie one blue and one brown, brown will prevail.
the genes of your parents.
Let
R= Dominant trait
r= Recessive trait
Homozygous dominant= RR
Homozygous recessive= rr
Heterozygous= Rr
Heterozygous individuals will have both traits, but its ph

Polio is not genetic.
To date only dominant genes were linked to Alzheimer's, but there is new evidence, that a recessive gene, may play a role in the development of Alzheimer's.

Congenital ptosis may occur through autosomal dominant inheritance. Common familial occurrences suggest that genetic or chromosomal defects are likely.
Hi, I don't think anyone knows at this point in time. Currently the thought is that there is a genetic component with perhaps an environmental trigger. Do a search for Parkinson's there are probably h
I think it's recessive alleles. Both parents must be a carrier.

The common form of ALS has no known inheritance pattern as it appears to be a sporadic disorder due to an unknown cause. There is a genetic form of ALS due to a mutation in an enzyme called superoxide
Neither. Down Syndrome is caused by an extra chromosome.
