Creating a pedigree chart from a family history and hypothesizing pattern of inheritance A family with a new disease caused by a mutant gene has been found. The family history has been collected and recorded. You will now create a pedigree chart from their family history and use the pedigree to predict the pattern of inheritance the disease follows. • Read the following family history: Patient 1 and Patient 2 visited a genetics counselor and provided their family histories. As...

His dad Brett, his mother Victoria, his brother Jack or his sisters Nola...
