албинизам

албинизам

The genetically inherited condition in which there is a marked deficiency of pigmentation in skin, hair, and eyes. An individual with these traits is an "albino. " Since the gene for albinism is recessive, it only shows up in the phenotype of homozygous recessive people. Albinos have sunlight sensitive eyes and skin. They are also more likely to develop skin and eye cancers. This is a pleiotropic trait.
