When working out genetics problems in this and succeeding chapters, always assume that members of the P 1 generation are homozygous, unless the information or data you are given require you to do otherwise.
▪"wrongful birth" case was recently brought before a court in which a child with Smith?Lemli?Opitz syndrome was born to apparently healthy parents. This syndrome is characterized by a cluster of birth defects including cleft palate, and an array of problems with the reproductive and urinary organs. Originally considered by their physician as having a nongenetic basis, the parents decided to have another child, who was also born with Smith?Lemli?Opitz syndrome. In the role of a genetic counselor, instruct the court about what occurred, including the probability of the parents having two affected offspring, knowing that the disorder is inherited as a recessive trait.
