Autism is a neurological difference and like any other variation in humankind it comes as a result of genetics. Autism is caused by various genes or genetic mutations, but past that we can't be certain what causes a person to be Autistic.
The mutation that causes Autism is a rare genetic mutation. There are three different genes that are linked to the cause of different disorders on the Autism Spectrum.
Autism is inborn. They haven't figure out what causes autism yet.
There are no "real" causes of autism yet, but there are theories. Autism is a disease rarely found in newborn babies that disable the child's language development and they often have trouble communicating.
Autism is not a disease, Autism is a neurological difference - a difference in a persons brain and how their brain works. There is a strong genetic factor but we don't yet know the exact causes of Autism.
Unknown at this time.
No one is really certain what causes autism but you can be fairly certain that dirty toilet seats do not.
Dallas Rocks Against Autism was an event held in 2009 to raise money for Autism related causes. Although it should be noted that 'against autism' is a negative message, no one should be against autism as that means you're against Autistic people.
Autism (Autism Spectrum Disorder or ASD) does not have a single known cause. Research shows it develops due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors, usually affecting brain development before birth. Here are some commonly accepted causes and risk factors: Genetic factors: Autism often runs in families. Certain gene changes can affect how the brain develops and how nerve cells communicate. Prenatal factors: Complications during pregnancy, such as infections, poor maternal nutrition, exposure to toxins, or uncontrolled diabetes, may increase risk. Advanced parental age: Having older parents, especially the father, has been linked to a slightly higher chance of autism. Birth-related factors: Premature birth, low birth weight, or lack of oxygen during birth may play a role. Neurological differences: Differences in brain structure and function are commonly seen in individuals with autism. It’s important to note that vaccines do not cause autism, a claim that has been repeatedly disproven by scientific studies. While autism itself is not “caused” by parenting or lifestyle, early support makes a big difference. Many families today benefit from a combination therapy approach, which may include behavioral therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and sensory integration. This holistic approach helps children improve communication, social skills, and daily functioning based on their individual needs.
The study of autism is often referred to as "autism research" or "autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research." This interdisciplinary field encompasses various aspects, including genetics, neuroscience, psychology, and education, to better understand the causes, characteristics, and interventions for autism. Researchers aim to improve diagnosis, treatment, and support for individuals on the autism spectrum.
It cannot be acquired sexually. However, it can be inherited genetically. While all direct causes for autism are not completely known, there are some studies that indicate that parent with particular autism or autism-like symptomology can contibute to the likelihood that autism will surface in their children, thus establish a possible link to inheritability of autism or autism spectrum disorders. There are links to reelin gene mutations that also give rise to autism as well.
Your just born with it, no one really knows
There are not any known causes of Autism. Autism cannot be prevented and it is a condition that manifests in a person's genetic make-up. People suffering from Autism can fall in a broad range of spectrum.
