Hi, should we know which diseases are autosomal or sex linked in IMAT? I got 12.5% for option A before I knew haemophilia was a X linked disease.
yes some inherited diseases considered that you know them. such as hungtinton’s is dominant. and sickle cells happens because change in nucleotide

Anyone know where we can find a rough list of all the diseases we need to know?
i believe all u gotta know is mostly
sickle cell (recessive, allele mutation)
hungtionton’s (dominant)
red green color blindness (x linked)
haemophilia x linked
this would be the most likely asked ones in the imat.
you can also check Cambridge book for transferrable diseases such as TB and measels.
the rest should be given information about (from what I’ve seen in the past exams)
anyone else wants to add?
