Fragile X is a genetic abnormality which is inherited and individuals therefore have the condition from birth, although, depending on the severity of the symptoms it is often undetected until early childhood. The average age of diagnosis is 8 years old. If however, parents are known to be carriers of Fragile X, the child may be given a blood test early on which is used to diagnose fragile x.

So little is known about autism and asperger's that we cannot answer this question.

Fragile X syndrome is caused by a mutation that prevents the Fragile X mental retardation (Fmr-1) gene from being transcribed. This gene is located on the X chromosome (the sex chromosome). Since males only carry one of these chromosomes, they are twice as likely to be affected by the mutation than females.

they mean you are probally getting older and you are more likely to break a bone due to a fall

Yes. It is found as a mutation on the X chromosome (a sex chromosome) so it is sex linked. The gene for Fragile X is carried on the X chromosome. Because both males (XY) and females (XX) have at least one X chromosome, both can pass on the mutated gene to their children.

Henry Ford was diagnosed with dyslexia when he was just a young child. There is no exact age on record pertaining to his diagnosis, but even though he had this learning disability, he is still known as a great visionary.

Fragile X syndrome, is a genetic syndrome which results in a spectrum of characteristic physical, intellectual, emotional and behavioral features which include an elongated face, large or protruding ears, flat feet,

Males and females can be carriers, male carriers can only pass on to their daughters, they will be carriers as well have a premutation. Females can pass on to their sons or daughters, they will have the premutation or the full mutation.

Silence duh!

Once the size of the premutation exceeds 230 repeats, it becomes a full mutation and the FMR-1 gene is disabled. Individuals who carry the full mutation may have fragile X syndrome
