Study the pedigree chart given below
What does it show?
1. | Inheritance of a sex-linked inborn error of metabolism like phenylketonuria |
2. | Inheritance of a condition like phenylketonuria as an autosomal recessive trait |
3. | The pedigree chart is wrong as this is not possible |
4. | Inheritance of a recessive sex-linked disease like haemophilia |
Study the pedigree chart of a family showing the inheritance of myotonic dystrophy.

(1) The parents are homozygous recessive.
(2) The trait is Y-linked.
(3) The parents are homozygous dominant.
(4) The parents are heterozygous.
