_____ is a Variation in a phenotype associated with a particular
genotype; Can be caused by modifier genes, environmental
factors, and mutations. example: von Recklinghausen disease
(type 1 neurofibromatosis)- autosomal dominant ; Mutation in
normal tumor-suppressor gene, leads to tumor formation
Expressivity varies from brown spots on the skin to malignant
tumors, scoliosis, gliomas, and neuromas. - ANSWER-
Expressivity

forms sodium channels with defective transport - ANSWER-
Autosomal Recessive Inheritance

Because a father can give a son only a Y chromosome, the trait is
never transmitted from father to son. More males than females.

dystrophy which is a deletion of DMD gene causes dystrophin not
