1 gene has >1 effect on an individual's phenotype
|
pleiotrophy
|
|
cells in the body have different genetic makeup
|
mosaicism
|
|
presence of both normal & mutated mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)→ l/t variable expression in mitochondrial inherited dzs
|
heteroplasmy

|
equation for allele prevalence
|
p + q = 1
|
|

q (where q^2 = prev of homozyg recessive)
|
|
prev of XLR dz in females
|
q^2 (where q^2 also = prev of homozyg)
