Mitochondrial inheritance tends to not follow traditional heredity patterns described by Mendelian laws. A mother has a
mitochondrial condition where she produces a modified version of ATP synthase that is embedded in the inner mitochondrial
membrane. Which outcome is predicted for a mother who has four children with an unaffected father?


Sagot :

The outcome is predicted for a mother with a mitochondrial condition where she produces a modified version of ATP synthase that is embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane who has four children with an unaffected father - all four offspring will have this mitochondrial condition

Mitochondrial inheritance is a type of inheritance that is caused by mitochondrial DNA.

  • Mitochondrial DNA is the small circular chromosome found inside mitochondria.
  • The mitochondrial DNA, are passed exclusively from mother to offsprings
  • a mitochondrial disease was inherited, there is a 100% chance that each child in the family will inherit a mitochondrial disease.

Thus, all four offspring will have this mitochondrial condition
