Gene for blood clot
A2 Biology Genetics questions - The Student Room
In sweet peas the gene for the red color in flowers (R) is dominant over the gene for the white flowers (r). If a homozygous red-flowered plant is crossed with a white-flowered plant, what will be the genotype of the offspring? ... In man, hemophilia (failure of blood to clot) is a recessive and sex-linked character. A man and a woman, both ...

The cells that the body needs to clot blood are missing. Hemophilia is a hereditary disease and so it is passed up / down through generations. The gene / jeans that creates the disorder comes from the mother and is passed almost entirely to male babies. When hemophiliacs get a cut, the bleeding lasts much larger / longer than in normal people.

A blood clot consists of a platelet plug enmeshed in network of insoluble fibrin. ... There are many mutant version of the gene and some disease produce only a minor effect on the function of their protein, others fail to produce any functioning clotting factor.

8) Freckles are dominant to plain skin and the freckle gene is on an autosome; hemophilia (a disease in which blood doesn’t clot properly) is a sex-linked, recessive trait. A woman with plain skin and normal blood clotting (long family history of plain skin, but her dad was a hemophiliac) marries a man with freckles and hemophilia.

The test revealed that the time it took for Henry’s blood to clot was well above what would be expected for the dose of warfarin that he had been placed on. Dr. Strickland immediately took Henry off of his warfarin treatments and asked that he come in every three days for blood tests. ... A gene is a stretch of the DNA molecule which codes ...

Haemophilia A is a sex-linked genetic disease which results in the blood failing to clot properly. It is caused by a recessive allele on the X chromosome. The figure below shows the occurrence of haemophilia in one family.
Prothrombin Gene Mutation: Symptoms, Causes, Treatment
Mutated versions of the gene for one of these clotting factors can result in a protein which does not function properly. If the mutation results in an early stop codon in the gene, then no clotting protein may be produced. When one of the blood-clotting proteins is defective or absent, it takes an abnormally long time for a blood clot to form

Thromboplastin triggers the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin, and thrombin catalyzes the formation of fibrin from circulating plasma fibrinogen.This results in the formation of a blood clot. The blood clot gradually retracts (syneresis), pulling the damaged surfaces together. As repairs proceed the clot dissolves (fibrinolysis) through the ...

When a blood vessel is injured, normal clotting proteins result in prompt blood clot formation. After an injury, a blood clot stops the bleeding. Another version of the gene gives instructions for making defective clotting protein.
