it can be, but it is rare.
Can human DNA chromosomes be artificially removed to prevent genetic or hereditary diseases like removing the extra chromosome 21 which causes down syndrome?
Currently, there is no safe or effective way to artificially remove entire chromosomes from human DNA to prevent genetic or hereditary diseases. Down syndrome, for example, is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, and simply removing this extra chromosome would be complex and could have unintended consequences. Research is ongoing to develop therapies that may one day help manage genetic conditions like Down syndrome.
Is AML hereditary?
While acute myeloid leukemia (AML) itself is not directly hereditary, there are inherited genetic conditions that can increase the risk of developing AML, such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome or Down syndrome. These inherited conditions can predispose individuals to developing AML later in life. However, most cases of AML occur sporadically without a clear genetic cause.
Is DNA a hereditary?
Yes, DNA is hereditary because it contains the genetic information that is passed down from parents to offspring. This genetic information determines an individual's traits and characteristics.
Is myelofibrosis hereditary?
Myelofibrosis is usually not considered hereditary, as it is most commonly caused by acquired mutations in the bone marrow cells. However, there are rare genetic syndromes that can increase the risk of developing myelofibrosis. It is recommended to consult with a genetic counselor for personalized information regarding hereditary factors.

Is compartment syndrome hereditary?
Compartment syndrome is not typically considered to be hereditary. It is more commonly associated with acute trauma or overuse injuries that lead to increased pressure within a muscle compartment, restricting blood flow and potentially causing damage to tissues. Genetics may play a role in an individual's susceptibility to certain conditions that can contribute to compartment syndrome, but it is not considered a directly hereditary condition.
Why isn't down syndrome hereditary?
Down syndrome is primarily caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, a condition known as trisomy 21. This typically occurs due to a random error during cell division in the formation of eggs or sperm, rather than being inherited from a parent. While there are rare hereditary forms of Down syndrome, most cases arise sporadically and are not passed down genetically. Therefore, Down syndrome is not considered hereditary in the conventional sense.
Is Asperger syndrome hereditary?
Yes! Asperger's Syndrome is definitely genetic! It's a 50-50 possibility my paternal grandmother had it, because she was "eccentric" herself!

What are the causes of intestinal polyps?
There are several hereditary diseases that produce large numbers of intestinal polyps. These disorders include: Familial polyposis of the colon. Gardner's syndrome. Lynch's syndrome.
How is it possible for two people with down syndrome to produce a normal healthy child?
no because since they both have down syndrome, they will have 100 percent that they will have a down syndrome baby
What diseases can cause proximal renal tubular acidosis?
Proximal renal tubular acidosis (type 2) is caused by hereditary diseases, such as Fanconi's syndrome, fructose intolerance, and Lowe's syndrome.
