Summary[edit]

Description
English: Example of the pedigree of a hereditary, genetic trait being transmitted through (3) generations, doing so in an autosomal dominant fashion

Pedigree itself:

-A man with a genetic variant (red hexagon) has children with a woman without the genetic variant (white circle)

-Out of the three children they have, two of them end up inheriting the genetic variant and it's signs/symptoms.

-As they (the children) grow into adults, one of them (a woman) meets another person from a different family (a man), and ends up having children with them; the person they met is from a family that doesn't carry the genetic variant she inherited from her father.

-After having children (3), 2 out of the three end up having the genetic variant, showing how the process in which a genetic variant "runs in the family"

Summary of people within the family being affected:

3 men affected by genetic variant.

2 women affected by genetic variant.
