Marfan Syndrome Punnett Square

In my last post I discussed the chances of the disease being passed on to the children of someone who has the disease. If an individual carries an abnormal gene for Marfan syndrome, that individual has a 50 percent risk of passing down the disorder to each future offspring (as shown in attached photo). If a person does not carry the gene abnormality, then the risk for occurrence of the disorder in future offspring is the same as for the general population. In the attached photo we see a couple, one is a carrier and the other is not, as a result the chance of getting the disease from the parents is 50-50.
