Question: Explain whether you think judy’s family occurrences of breast and ovarian cancers are sporadic, hereditary, or familial.

Judy's family occurrences of breast and ovarian cancers are believed to be familial. According to Judy's doctor, the cases of breast cancer in her family are consistent with hereditary cancer. Since both males and females are affected, and there are no cases of ovarian cancer, the doctor suspects a mutation in the BRCA2 gene.
