Question

Your uncle (your mother's brother) has a rare genetic disease that is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, but you, your parents and your grandparents are unaffected. what is the approximate chance that you are a carrier (heterozygote) for this disease?

Answer 1

10% for this disease. Not sure so don't get your hopes up on this answer.

Answer 2

50% percent are the chances of being a carrier for this disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 50% of the probabilities of being a carrier for this disease. Because it is an autonomic disease, so she has one gene that is unaffected and one gene that is affected, that is why she is only a carrier. If the two genes were affected she will be a carrier and also affected.
