Solution:

A pedigree chart is used to study about the family history of an organism. The symbols for pedigree analysis are drawn using standard symbols such as square and circle. Males are shown by squares and females are represented by circles and standard formatting is done.
Consanguineous mating refers to a mating between two close relatives. This mating will not show much variations and can show genetic diseases and child morbidity and mortality.
