A woman (Tina) has a certain genetic condition(is affected). She goes to a genetic counselor to learn about the inheritance pattern of the condition and to ascertain the chance that she might pass it to her offspring. She is the first member of her family to seek medical advice concerning this condition. The following is the information she gives the Genetic Counselor. (assume that this condition displays 100% penetrance, results from a single genetic mutation and exhibits complete dominance)
1) Tina is the fourth born of seven children. Her oldest sibling is an affected sister followed by a brother then a sister, neither of whom is affected. Tina's younger siblings include an unaffected brother and fraternal twins- one girl and one boy- the youngest of Tina's siblings. The male twin is affected while the female is not.
2) Tina's oldest sister has five children with an unaffected man who has no family history of the condition. The oldest is a male followed by identical twins (both girls) another daughter and a son (the youngest). None of these individuals is affected.
3) Tina's affected brother has two children, a girl (the oldest) and a boy, with a woman who has no family history of the trait. Neither of these children is affected.
