Genetic Diseases

Personally i think it is neither right nor wrong because your saving a childs life but then again your messing with nature which isnt right. Some people tink its wrong because the human population needs narrowing down and cos your messing with nature

Although the exact cause of MS is still unknown, multiple sclerosis isn't considered a hereditary disease in the traditional sense.

HIV is Human immunodeficiency virus it is an RNA virus which attacks the CD4 cell of Humans and use the genetic materials of the to make copies of itslf thus weakening the immune system of the infected person. AIDs is the disease manifestation of HIV when the immune system has been weakened and the body is susceptible to attack for otherwise harmless organisms (opportunistic infections). It is characterized by a myriad of diffectent infections and refereed to as syndrome. Symptoms of HIV include lymphadenopathy, fever, wt loss, weakness etc AIDS- cryptococcal meningitis, oral oseophageal thrush, pneumocystic carinii, karposi sarcoma, severe weight loss, fever of unknown etiology, toxoplasmosis. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. It is a sexually transmitted disease, which means it is transmitted through contact between mucus membranes (mouth, genitals) or mixing body fluids (semen, blood). It is the virus that causes AIDS by attacking a certain type of cell in the immune system, weakening and debilitating it. AIDS is the sickness that follows infection with the virus, and it stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. With a weakened immune system, HIV will become AIDS, and the patient has a severely weakened immune system and becomes unable to fight off even the smallest of infections - a cold could be fatal. Currently, there are many drug therapies available to greatly prolong and improve the lives of those with HIV and AIDS. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus.

hi my name is ken i want to know about klinefelter syndrome disease progession so i can do my power point in my class. oh yeah tell me easy answer because i am only 15 year old THANKS MAN As far as I'm aware, it doesn't "progress" as such as it's not a disease but a genetic condition. If you're that interested, look it up on Wikipedia. :)

If it is a mild form then most live to a conventional length. If it is severe then most die at a young age early in life

When you get sick, you will start caughing or sneezing, then it disrupt homeostasis

It is not very likely that this Syndrome will be passed down because about 1 in every 500 to 800 males inherits this allele.

It is not possible for it to be passed down from parents because it is not a trait or a gene it is just a disorder that happens when the DNA is being copied or if there is some sort of damage done to the DNA but no it canot be passed down from one generation to another.

Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic condition that affects many parts of the body. Infants with PWS have severe hypotonia (low muscle tone), feeding difficulties, and slow growth. ... Rarely, a genetic change responsible for PWS can be inherited.

Williams Syndrome affects around 20,000 to 30,000 people which is roughly 1 in 10,000 in the world. It has positive aspects such as musical ability, a high level of sociability and high IQ levels however it also has very negative aspects such as the high risk of coronary disease, some learning disabilities and digestive disruptions.

Republicans are either no more or no less in denial over anything than Democrats are. The only issue is which issue it is and what points of view are being adopted. It is unfair to characterize either political party as being in denial. And it is illogical. There are no "pat answers" to the issues these parties debate and dispute. There are only points of view. The questions we grapple with as a society are not easy ones to answer, and a complex society divides itself over complex issues. No thinking person would expect any 21st century panorama to be painted in black and white.

I got this from google. The first person was Jonathan Hutchin.

I'm guessing you meant sickle cell anemia. You already said that it's recessive, which means that both parents have to be carriers for it to be passed on to their children. If both parents carry the gene, then there is a 1 in 4 chance of having an affected offspring, 2 in 4 chances of having offsprings which carry the disease, and 1 in 4 of the child being unaffected (check out how to draw a punnet square). If one parent is a carrier and the other one is healthy, then you have a 50% chance of having an offspring who carries the disease, but none of your offsprings will be affected. Hope this helps

1. (1) Produced by an abnormality in, or a mutation of the genetic code in a single gene; (2) Caused by several abnormal genes (Producing so-called polygenic diseases); or (3) Caused by the abnormal presence or absence of an entire chromosome or by alteration in the structure of chromosomes.

Genetic engineering is important because if we did not have it some people would suffer from not having their cells perform normally and it is used to help make abig amount of medicine, such as insulin, to help people who have diabetes.

Yes a karyotype is performed which is a blood test to be able to look at the number of chromosomes a person has, and therefore would be able to identify the extra X chromosome in case someone has it.

Like other viruses, herpes is an obligate intracellular parasite. It gets its energy from the host cell's ATP.

A genetic disorder (or a hereditary disease/inherited disorder) is when a wrong gene or chromosomal aberration changes what your genome normally would be. For example: Down's Syndrome or Trisomy 21 which means that that person has 3 copies of chromosome 21 instead of the normal 2.

In biology, heritable traits pass from one generation to the next I way of DNA which is a long polymer that incorporates four types of interchangeable bases. The sequence of bases in a DNA molecule specifies genetic information.

First, there is no such thing as a perfect personality. However, the easiest way to find out if someone has been seeing a psycologist or some other type of mental health professional is to wait for the appropriate time to ask that person something to the effect of "have you talked with a therapist about that?". Besides that, it takes a long time to get to know someone.

Hungtington's disease is a dominant mutation in the gene that codes for the protein 'Huntington'

It only affects a single gene, the remainder of the chromosome is unaffected and therefore it is not a chromosomal abnormality

1. genetic engineering is a way of intentionally going a genetic sequence in DNA so that a particular traits is produced. that what a genetics engineering. but did u know that herb Boyer first transferred DNA from one species to another.so that whats about genetic engineering. Next, i'm going to talk about is that genetcs engineering.it can haelp spociety is humanbeings living and acting together.

Only by not implanting the genes in the first place. Once implanted, the genes will be passed on to future generations. If the implanted genes corrects a medical defect and future generations don't suffer from the same defect, then implanting genes could be classed as a benefit to mankind.
