One Common Ancestor
Behind Blue Eyes
• People with blue eyes have a single,
common ancestor, according to new
research.
• A team of scientists has tracked down
a genetic mutation that leads to blue
eyes. The mutation occurred between
6,000 and 10,000 years ago. Before
then, there were no blue eyes.

“Inbred Mutants”
“Brad Pitt's squinting a bit in the light of the
flashbulbs, but he has blue eyes. A new study
suggests he shares a common ancestor with all
the world's other blue-eyed denizens.”

Examples of X-Linked Traits
• Color blindness
– Inability to distinguish among some of all
colors
• Hemophilia
– Blood-clotting disorder
– 1/7,000 males has allele for hemophilia A
– Was common in European royal families

Down Syndrome
• Trisomy of chromosome 21
• Mental impairment and a variety of
additional defects
• Can be detected before birth
• Risk of Down syndrome increases
dramatically in mothers over age 35

Turner Syndrome
• XXY condition
• Results mainly from nondisjunction in
mother (67%)
• Phenotype is tall males
– Sterile or nearly so
– Feminized traits (sparse facial hair,
somewhat enlarged breasts)
– Treated with testosterone injections
