GENETIC DISORDERS
According to the National Human Genome Institute, almost all diseases have some sort of genetic factor. Diseases can be caused by a mutation in a single gene, multiple gene mutations, combined gene mutations, and environmental factors, or by chromosome mutation or damage. Gene mutations have been identified as the cause of several disorders including sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, Tay-Sachs disease, Huntington disease, hemophilia, and some cancers.
