    ### Instruction:
    Is facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy inherited ?
    ### Response:
    FSHD1 is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, which means one copy of the shortened D4Z4 region on a "permissive" chromosome 4 is sufficient to cause the disorder. In most cases, an affected person inherits the altered chromosome from one affected parent.
