If you have mermaid syndrome then you would of been born with it and rather had your legs split or have both amputated.

The cause of mermaid syndrome is the deprivation of the lower part of the body (legs) of oxygen and nutrients due to a problem in the circulatory system. More information in the link below.

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 are four types of chromosomal mutations?

Four types of chromosomal mutations are Down syndrome (which is a mutation in which there are three copies of chromosome 21), Kinefelter Syndrome (which is a mutation in which a male has an extra X-chromosome), Turner Syndrome (which is a mutation in which a female is missing an X-chromosome), and Patau Syndrome (which is a mutation in which there are three copies of chromosome 13).


Is marfan syndrome a genetic disease?

Yes, Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder. It is not a disease. It is caused by a mutation in fibrillin and is an autosomal dominant mutation. This means that if you have a Marfan causing mutation, you have Marfan, and you have a 50/50 chance of passing it on to any children you may have. Severity of Marfan can vary within a family, even though all affected family members have the same mutation. It can not skip generations.


What type of mutation is marfan syndrome?

Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene. These mutations can result in abnormalities in connective tissues, leading to symptoms such as tall stature, long limbs, heart defects, and eye problems.

Is Proteus Syndrome a mutation?

Yes, Proteus syndrome is caused by a post-zygotic somatic mutation in the AKT1 gene. This mutation leads to overgrowth of various tissues in the body, resulting in characteristic features of the syndrome.


What type of mutation is tourettes syndrome?

Tourette syndrome is believed to be a complex disorder with a combination of genetic and environmental factors contributing to its development. It is not caused by a single mutation, but rather likely involves several genetic variations that increase susceptibility to the disorder.


What type of chromosomal mutation is wolf hirschhorn syndrome?

Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome is primarily caused by a deletion of a portion of chromosome 4, specifically at the 4p16.3 region. This chromosomal mutation is classified as a deletion mutation, where a segment of the chromosome is missing, leading to the loss of genetic material. The syndrome is characterized by developmental delays, distinctive facial features, and other congenital anomalies.
