Any number of nucleotides can be deleted from a single base to an entire piece of chromosome.

Answer:

There is no cure for cystic fibrosis, but treatment can ease symptoms and reduce complications.

Explanation:

1). For those with cystic fibrosis who have certain gene mutations, doctors may recommend a newer medication called ivacaftor. This medication may improve lung function and weight, increases the activity of Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)protein and reduce the amount of salt in sweat. It has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for people with cystic fibrosis who are age 6 and older. The dose depends on your weight and age.

2). For people with a certain gene mutation who are age 12 and older, another drug is available that combines ivacaftor with a medication called lumacaftor. This drug is called orkambi.

The use of Orkambi may improve lung function and reduce the risk of exacerbations.
