With autosomal recessive inheritance, an individual must receive faulty copies of a gene from the mother and father to develop albinism. If both parents carry the gene, there is a 1 in 4 chance that their offspring will have albinism and a 1 in 2 chance that the offspring will become a carrier (without symptoms).
