Answer:

The genotype most associated with all mutated LDL receptors is "FF" and also associated with someone who has Familia Hypercholesterolemia.

Step-by-step explanation:

The genotype most associated with all mutated LDL receptors is "FF" which is dominant and same is associated with someone who has Familia Hypercholesterolemia. The three different genotypes obtained are the genotypical ratio FF, Ff, and ff and presented in a ratio of 1:2:1.

Nevertheless, people with the genotype FF and Ff will show the same phenotype, since F is the expressed dominant gene.Family hypercholesterolemia is a condition passed down by families. It's causing very high levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol.The disease starts at birth and can cause early heart attacks.
