The Mic2 gene in humans is present on both the X and Y chromosome. Let's suppose the Mic2 gene exists in a dominant Mic2 allele, which results in normal surface antigen, and a recessive mic2 allele, which results in defective surface antigen production. Using molecular techniques, it is possible to identify homozygous and heterozygous individuals. By following the transmission of the Mic2 and mic2 alleles in a large human pedigree, would it be possible to distinguish between pseudoautosomal inheritance and autosomal inheritance Explain your answer.
