Answer:
(1) Transmission of body characters occurs due to autosomes. They are not concerned with sex determination or sex linkage.
(2) All the body characters from parents are passed on of their offspring through autosomes. This is called autosomnal inheritance.
(3) Some autosomal characters are due to dominant genes while some other are due to recessive genes. E.g Widow's peak and Huntington's disease is also autosomal domminant characer. etc.
(4) Phenyl ketonuria (PKU), Cystic fibrosis and Sickle-cell anaemia are autosomal recessive traits.
