Best Answer

Most genetic diseases are started by a mutation of the DNA in the gametes (sperm and eggs) of a parent. this mutation has a chance to spread to the child. if the child gets the defective gene he or she then could have genetically mutated gametes which then keep spreading and spreading after future generations are created.
