Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
In autosomal recessive inheritance, the disease will not occur unless both parents have recessive genes for the disorder. There is a 25 chance a child born to the couple will be disease and carrier free; a 50 chance the child will be, like the parents, free of disease but carrying the unexpressed disease gene; and a 25 chance the child will have the disease, or a 1 in 4 chance. With the recessive gene carried by both parents, the chances of children developing the disease are not 2 in 4, 3 in 4, or 0 in 4.
