Peekay is right, these are very high yield topics. You can check FA for easy ways to remember hunters vs. hurlers, like hunter aims for the X so its X linked recessive, and stuff like that.

oh sorry plasmod3, should have written it out, i meant First Aid, both 2003 or 2004 editions would have this, they have good ways of remembering these diseases. You can get it from any bookstore or even online, like amazon.com etc hope this helps! Good luck

Just a quick correction.... rita, i think you mistyped what you meant about hunter's.... it is not autosomal recessive... it is X-linked recessive.... Im quite possitive you know this but wanted to make sure no one was confused.
-Cheers!
