You may not necessarily have the disorder, but its carried in you genes. so if you were to have kids or already have then there's the possibility of your off spring having the disorder ...To carry is to have it in your genes

A sex-linked disorder is when a mutation of genes overrides the normal function of a another gene. For example, male-pattern baldness is a sex-linked disorder.
Chromosomal, because the person with Klinefelter's would have 47 chromosomes. A genetic disorder would be any disorder having to do with genes, but would not necessarily mean having an extra chromosome.
dominant disorder is caused by mutations in genes on the x chromosomes.
A mutated gene is just a gene that doesn't have the correct DNA or alleles.. Depending of the human disorder the gene that is mutated will be different... We use genes throughout our bodies but ALL genes can cause human disorders but there is NO single gene that, when mutated, creates ALL genetic modification...
Autism is considered to be a genetic disorder because it is caused by a persons genes. It's linked to a number of individual genes and genetic mutations.
It creates variation through the genes it codes for. actually, only 3% of our DNA accounts for genes. AP bio!!!!!! It creates variation through the genes it codes for. actually, only 3% of our DNA accounts for genes. AP bio!!!!!!
An abnormal condition that a person inherits through the chromosomes or genes is a genetic disorder.
It is a disorder which is passed on through your genes. It's actually quite simple. You see, hemophilia is hereditary, hence the "genetic". Then, it is a disorder of the blood, hence "disorder". "Genetic Disorder".
Yes, it is normal. It also depends on the genes that is passed to you from your parents or relatives. Genes are traits that are passed on from parents to offspring as units of information is called "genes"
A carrier means that you have the gene for the disorder, but because the gene is recessive (meaning that it only shows when you have two recessive genes) and you obviously have a dominant gene as well, you won't show the disorder. Someone who actually has the disorder has two recessive genes. D = dominant gene r = recessive gene Dr = carrier, no signs rD = carrier, no signs DD = not a carrier, no signs rr = has the disorder
