Select the correct match.
Phenylketonuria - Autosomal dominant trait
Sickle cell anaemia - Autosomal recessive trait, chromosome-11
Thalassemia - X linked
Haemophilia - Y linked
To solve this problem, we need to identify the correct genetic inheritance pattern for each condition listed in the options. Let's analyze each option:Option 1: Phenylketonuria - Autosomal dominant trait - Phenylketonuria (PKU) is actually an autosomal recessive disorder, not dominant. - Therefore, this option is incorrect.Option 2: Sickle cell anaemia - Autosomal recessive trait, chromosome-11 - Sickle cell anaemia is indeed an autosomal recessive disorder. - The gene responsible for sickle cell anaemia is located on chromosome 11. - Therefore, this option is correct.Option 3: Thalassemia - X linked - Thalassemia is not an X-linked disorder; it is typically autosomal recessive. - Therefore, this option is incorrect.Option 4: Haemophilia - Y linked - Haemophilia is not Y-linked; it is an X-linked recessive disorder. - Therefore, this option is incorrect.Based on the analysis, the correct match is:Option 2: Sickle cell anaemia - Autosomal recessive trait, chromosome-11This corresponds to the correct option, which is Option 2.
