FAQ: entendendo a interpretação
Um “transportador” é sério?
Não. O animal é geralmente saudável, mas pode transmitir a mutação ao seu descendência.
E se um animal for “afetado”?
Ele carrega duas cópias mutadas. Os sinais clínicos são esperados dependendo a doença. Não deveria ser criado.
Por que existem diferenças entre homem/mulher?
Algumas doenças estão ligadas ao sexo, pelo que a sua expressão varia dependendo do sexo do animal.
