The client is 34 years old and has been diagnosed with COPD as a result of being homozygous for a mutation of the alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT) gene alleles. His wife has two normal AAT gene alleles
He is concerned that his two children may develop this problem. What is your best response? A. "Because neither of your parents have COPD and your wife does not have the abnormal gene alleles, your children will not be affected." B. "Because your wife is not affected nor is or a carrier, your children will have normal levels of AAT and their risk is the same as for the general population." C. "Because you have the mutations and your wife does not, your son will be at an increased risk for developing COPD but your daughter will only be a carrier." D. "Because both of your AAT gene alleles are mutated, your children will each have one abnormal gene and their risk for COPD is only increased if they smoke or are chronically exposed to other precipitating factors."
