Question

If an albino man & an albino woman had a child would it be albino?

Answer 1

yes bacause it is recessive both parents would only have the recessive gene to pass on to the child.

Answer 2

ohh i'm unsure, i would think so like, but you never know :]

Answer 3

There is no single cause of albinism, so not necessarily.

Answer 4

Yes, hence why they have had groups of albinos in the past.

Chuck said it right,

AA- pigmented

Aa- pigmented

aA- pigmented

aa- Albino

So if 2 people were aa, each would pass on an a to the kid, making the kid aa.

EDIT: That's the general theory... it happens in 99% of cases, but there are ALWAYS exceptions when it comes to genetics... it's not all cut and dry with so many codes.

Answer 5

it's a possibility..although there may be a slight chance of having a normal skin colored child..if  the trait is not in the generation back.....but thats biologically...it doesn't always come as it's said or predicted.

Answer 6

yes, because albinoism is a recessive trait, so it would be(mom)aa and (dad)aa combining

Answer 7

the kid would be see through

Answer 8

I think it depends on the ancestry from way back in a family. If its albino thru and thru I guess theyre stuck with it

If not, there can be variants

Im not an expert, mind!!

Answer 9

Yes, there is not the gene in the parents needed for pigmentation of the skin to be passed on to their children, so then the child wont have the gene needed for skin pigment, so it will be Albino too.

Answer 10

Chuck is probably right, although there are some forms of albinism to which this does not apply, and as always, since genes  sometimes fail to express themselves during development, get confirmatory evidence before rushing to the divorce court.
