Question
Which of the following is a characteristic of autosomal dominant inheritance?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
In autosomal dominant inheritance, the trait typically appears in every generation because an affected individual has a 50% chance of passing the dominant allele to each child. It does not skip generations unless there is incomplete penetrance.
Hint
The trait is present in each generation if the allele is present.
