Advantages of genetic testing for mutated diseases include early detection and intervention, which can lead to better management and treatment options, as well as informed family planning decisions. However, disadvantages may include psychological distress from potential positive results, privacy concerns regarding genetic data, and potential discrimination in insurance or employment based on genetic predispositions. Additionally, there may be uncertainty about the implications of results, especially if the significance of certain mutations is not fully understood.

Why is Huntington's disease dominant in inheritance patterns?

Huntington's disease is dominant in inheritance patterns because only one copy of the mutated gene is needed to develop the disease. This means that if a person inherits the mutated gene from just one parent, they will likely develop Huntington's disease.


Could a human disease mutate so that it affected crops?

That is practically not possible for a disease to to get mutated and transferred to crops. At the most the disease confined to human can get mutated. It can be transferred to the primates. That can be imagined. Such transfer from the animal kingdom to plant kingdom is not possible and not known.


If a boy inherits a disease that is autosomal recessive he inherited it from his mother?

If a boy inherits an autosomal recessive disease, he would have inherited one copy of the mutated gene from each of his parents. The mother is a carrier, meaning she has one copy of the mutated gene but does not show symptoms of the disease. When both parents are carriers, there is a 25% chance with each pregnancy that the child will inherit two copies of the mutated gene and have the disease.

How disease started?

Most genetic diseases are started by a mutation of the DNA in the gametes (sperm and eggs) of a parent. this mutation has a chance to spread to the child. if the child gets the defective gene he or she then could have genetically mutated gametes which then keep spreading and spreading after future generations are created.
