Many individuals with nail-patella syndrome also have kidney pathologies, but this is not found in all individuals. What might account for the range of different tissues that are affected in these individuals?
Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a genetic disorder by more details - pleiotropic autosomal-dominant disorder due to mutations in the gene LMX1B. This gene is locatedon human chromosome 9's q arm i.e. present on the longer arm, 9q34.
Due to this mutation or this genetic disorder it causes poorly developed nails and kneecaps, but can also affect many other part of the body knees, elbow, and pelvis.
But other internal tissues are also affected,such as- kidney, nervous system, and gastrointestinal organs. But this is not found in all individuals. Here the account for the range of different tissues that are affected is about 40%.

Does this pedigree suggest any linkage between the
gene that causes nail- patella syndrome and the gene that causes
blood type?
Please explain fully to include phenotype, genotype,
type of inheritance, and anything else that well assist in the
understanding of this pedigree.
I get that the IBi gene is linked blood type to
nail-patella disorder, but how do I understand that from the
material presented.
Thank you for assistance in understanding this
material.

thats all the information that was given.
Nail patella syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant condition causing misshapen nails and kneecaps. The Nail patella gene is approximately 12 map units apart from the l gene which determines ABO blood type. Nail patella syndrome (N) is dominant to normal • IA is codominant to 1B: 1A is dominant to i • B is codominant to 1A, B is dominant to i • A 1A and IA i = Type A blood...

A lipoprotein panel was done on 2 different individuals, both of whom were found to have a total cholesterol level of 200 mg/dl, a reading in the borderline high range. Yet, the physician was concerned about heart disease in one of the patients more than the other. What other factors may have contributed to the physician's evaluation of the 2 patients?
TOPIC #2: LEIGH'S SYNDROME - CELLULAR RESPIRATION AND HEALTH Cellular respiration is vital to our health. When it fails to work properly, serious diseases (and even death) occur. The connections between disease and respiration (glycolysis, the intermediate step, citric acid cycle (i.e. Krebs cycle), and the electron transport chain (ETC) are being studied by scientists. While many mysteries still remain, much is also known. Leigh's syndrome is a rare central nervous system degenerative disorder that is due to various problems...
Critical Analysis 1. Individuals who were born in 1985 were in high school when the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, occurred. Those who were born a decade later, in 1995, were in the early elementary grades. Individuals in both cohorts probably remember the events, but, because they experienced them during different periods of development, the two groups might have been affected differently. What kinds of differences do you think might be found in these two groups' long-term reactions to...
