This mean that to have a predisposition for a specific disease or condition is that your family history means it might be passed down to you . This is a genetic disease in which a disease can be passed to you by your family because you have the same genes.

Your family history means it might be passed down to you.

Predisposition is the increased likelihood or inclination of one person to be more susceptible to a condition. Family history may indicate genetics as a predisposing factor. This means that a person may have a higher tendency to contract a certain disease or medical condition.
