Suppose the ability to roll one’s tongue (dominant) is linked to a rare form of dwarfism, which is also dominant. If the parents are heterozygous for both alleles, with two dominants on one chromosome and the two recessives on the homologous chromosome, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? (assume the two genes are completly linked, i.e. no crossing over)..

I have a project dues and i need to know all of this info about dwarfism. i cant find some of this info on google/ask though. PLEASE HELP!

I’m doing a report on this so if you find the answer, I also need the address of the site you found it on. Thank you.

I’m writing a paper about people with achondroplasia – those people used to be called Dwarves…..for some reason, it just seems "not right’ to use the term achondroplasics……

Now there is a question I never thought I would ask….

Thanks all….Be well

I’ve met a man, a truly, wonderful, brilliant man. The only thing is he’s a dwarf and is only 3 foot 5, I love him so much but I cant bring myself to introduce him to my family because I know they wont take our relationship seriously. I know they will skit us no end, it’s ruining my life at the moment to the point when it’s even invading my dreams. I honestly dont know what to do. I know I am young as I am only 16 but it makes me question is this simply a challenge from God?

Is it autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked, or a chromosomal error?

I’m saying in general because they have the disorder. I want to know because I don’t want to suffer not knowing if I can really find love out there. I don’t want to sound miserable, but I’m so god dam* lonely.

Know what I mean? A guy who married a friend thinks he’s a dwarf, and maybe he is; he’s extremely short, but how do we know? I looked in major encyclopedias and there is not one definitive description. It just says "short" which can be subjective.
All your answers are really good, thanks!
Joshua, that is really mean and not funny at all. Learn to be kind.

and there was a girl on the show who had teeth which covered her bottom lip as they were so long. It looked uncomfortable and even disturbing. Can someone explain this to me? There are non-invasive very quick and simple like dental procedures that canbe done to minimize the discomfort of the jaw and mouth by fitting the teeth to a person’s mouth for their pleasure and for better self confidence.

3. Dwarfism is growth disorder resulting in an abnormally short individual. What are the two major types of dwarfism seen in humans? Describe the physiological basis of these two forms of dwarfism. Do individuals suffering from these two types of dwarfism have the same appearance? Explain.

without harming them?
By the way this is purely curiosity

What is the average life span of someone with dwarfism and what are if any the medical problems that accompany this condition ?

Should i take action please i need advise they imimate him and he cries it is so sad

Is it a dominant trait, recessive trait or is it incomplete dominance?

to receive disablility checks from the gonvernment. Is this true or not?

I wanted to know what the different causes and forms of dwarfism are. Links greatly appreciated.
