Patterns of inheritance
These causes may include a single abnormal gene (mongenic), a chromosomal abnormality or a genetic predisposition which is allied to other factors.
Each of these three causes will be covered in this section.
Single abnormal gene (mongenic) disorders:
- Autosomal Dominant Inheritance
- Autosomal Recessive Inheritance
- X-Linked Recessive Inheritance
- X-Linked Dominant Inheritance
- Mitochondrial Inheritance
- Imprinted Genes
