Genetic is nothing but human thinking because if genes have power to convert genetics into the coming generation so prophets' son become all prophet while their genes were pure belonging to prophets' family. Noah' son did accept the Noah's din til death.
Jacob all sons did not become prophets while his all sons got the genes of Jacob but some were not holy and some of them made evil deeds. Why? Here genetics theory fails entirely.
Actually in human body vitamins and minerals combination breaks into parts and its reaction mysterious type reaction starts in human body due to which occurs many mysterious diseases in human body and these diseases spread via soul circulation mixing with blood.
A genetic disease is any disease that is caused by an abnormality in an individual's genome, the person's entire genetic make.
The abnormality can range from minuscule to major -- from a discrete mutation in a single base in the DNA of a single gene to a gross chromosome abnormality involving the addition or subtraction of an entire chromosome or set of chromosomes.
Some genetic disorders are inherited from the parents, while other genetic diseases are caused by acquired changes or mutations in a preexisting gene or group of genes. Mutations can occur either randomly or due to some environmental exposure.
Family medical history is really essential for the family members to determine the genetic diseases. If each of every member has this essential document, then there will be no waste of time to address the medical conditions. It tends to be the familial line of history. However, if the documents are not available. It is most likely that doctors will ask for undergoing diagnostic tools to determine the main cause of disease or illness.
