Diseases that result from an abnormality in or a mutation of a gene are termed what type of disease?
Genetic diseases
Describe three ways genetic diseases are caused?
1. (1) Produced by an abnormality in, or a mutation of the genetic code in a single gene; (2) Caused by several abnormal genes (Producing so-called polygenic diseases); or (3) Caused by the abnormal presence or absence of an entire chromosome or by alteration in the structure of chromosomes.
Is the William syndrome a mutation?
Yes, Williams syndrome is a genetic condition caused by a deletion of genetic material on chromosome 7. This deletion is not usually inherited, but occurs randomly. It is not considered a mutation in the traditional sense, but rather a genetic anomaly.
What is a genetic mistake?
A genetic mistake, also known as a mutation, is an alteration in the DNA sequence that can lead to changes in an organism's traits or characteristics. Mutations can be caused by various factors such as environmental influences or errors during DNA replication. Some mutations have no effect, while others can result in genetic disorders or diseases.
Genetic mutation caused by the loss of a chromosomal segment?
Deletion
Can AIDS be caused by genetic mutation?
Yes they can if you want to have AIDS!
What is a Genetic Error?
A genetic error, or mutation, is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. These errors can occur spontaneously or be caused by external factors, and they can result in changes to the way the gene functions, leading to genetic disorders or diseases.
What diseases are thought to be caused by point mutation?
Sickle cell anemia.
Is hemophilia caused by inbreeding?
No, hemophilia is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the genes responsible for blood clotting, and it is not directly caused by inbreeding. Inbreeding can increase the likelihood of inheriting genetic disorders, including hemophilia, if the mutation is present in the family's gene pool.
What dieseases comes from a mutation in the hemogobin?
Sickle cell anemia and thalassemia are two diseases caused by mutation of the protein hemoglobin.
