I can only really think of a couple off the top of my head. Cystic fibrosis and Sickle cell anemia are the only ones I know for sure. Albinism may be but I'm not 100% sure.
Cystic fibrosis is an example of an autosomal recessive disorder. It is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene located on chromosome 7. Both parents must pass on a copy of the mutated gene for a child to be affected by cystic fibrosis.

Is alkaptonuria caused by a recessive or dominant allele?
Alkaptonuria is caused by a recessive allele. It is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that an individual needs to inherit two copies of the defective gene (one from each parent) in order to have the condition.
Is Wilson's disease a sex-linked or autosomal disorder?
Wilson's disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that both copies of the gene associated with the disease must be mutated for the individual to develop the condition. It is not a sex-linked disorder, as it does not depend on the individual's sex for inheritance.
Is progeria a recessive or dominant disorder?
Progeria is a dominant disorder caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene. It is characterized by accelerated aging in children.
Is sickle cell disease autosomal or x-linked or chromosomal?
Sickle cell disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that it is caused by a mutation in one of the autosomal chromosomes (chromosomes that are not sex chromosomes). In the case of sickle cell disease, the mutation occurs in the gene encoding the beta-globin subunit of hemoglobin on chromosome 11.
What is an inherited autosomal recessive disorder of the blood where an individuals red blood cells are sickle shaped rather than disk shaped?
C. Sickle-cell anemia
Which of these is in autosomal recessive disorder?
You did not list a "these" to chose from.
Is cystic fibrosis a dominant or co-dominant disorder?
It is autosomal recessive and it is not a disorder! Cystic Fibrosis is a disease.
A person who has inherited the autosomal recessive disorder called?
A person who has inherited an autosomal recessive disorder will have two copies of the mutated gene, one from each parent. This results in the individual expressing the disorder. Symptoms can vary depending on the specific disorder.
Who does a male inherit an autosomal recessive disorder from?
A male can inherit an autosomal recessive disorder from both of his carrier parents, who each pass down a copy of the mutated gene. This results in the male having two copies of the mutated gene, leading to the manifestation of the disorder.
Is the maple syrup disease sex-linked?
Yes, maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder, not a sex-linked disorder. It is caused by mutations in genes on autosomal chromosomes, which both males and females can inherit equally.
How does someone get an autosomal recessive disorder such as Tay Sachs?
You must inherit two recessive alleles, one from each parent.
Is sickle cell disease a chromosomal abnormality?
sickle cell is an autosomal recessive disorder
Is galactosemia sex-linked?
No, it is a genetic metabolic disorder.
Is sickle cell an dominant or recessive?
Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disorder. It can result from two carriers having a child together.
Cystic fibrosis autosomal dominant?
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR gene. It is not an autosomal dominant condition. Individuals need to inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to have the disorder.
Is cystics fibrosis is caused by a mutation that is the dominant alle of a gene?
No, cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder.
Is cystic fibrosis an autosomal disease?
Yes, cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease.
