What are two genetic diseases besides Down syndrome?
Two genetic diseases besides Down syndrome are cystic fibrosis, which affects the lungs and digestive system, and Huntington's disease, which is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects motor function and cognitive abilities.
Is cystic fibrosis non disjunction?
Cystic fibrosis is not caused by nondisjunction; it is a genetic disorder resulting from mutations in the CFTR gene, which is typically inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Nondisjunction refers to the failure of chromosomes to separate properly during cell division, leading to an abnormal number of chromosomes in gametes. While nondisjunction can lead to conditions like Down syndrome or Turner syndrome, cystic fibrosis is specifically linked to changes in a single gene rather than chromosomal abnormalities.

Non-infectious diseases are those that are not caused by pathogens. Examples include Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, and congestive heart failure.
