Alport syndrome (AS) is a genetic disease in which a mutation affects the kidneys, the ears, and the eyes. The syndrome causes kidney disease as well as deafness. Affected men in the family died early as a result of their kidney problems; whereas, females lived until old age and showed mild symptoms. The gene responsible for Alport syndrome is located on the X chromosome. Susan and Philip have 2 children. Their 12-year old son, Joe already has kidney problems while their 15-year old daughter Marianne is healthy. Susan had a brother who died of Alport syndrome but her parents are both over 60 years old. Susan and Philip are expecting another child. They are concerned with the chance of having an affect son. What is the probability of their next child being born a son and have Alport Syndrome?
