Chondromalacia is the synonymous of the cartilage softening (chondro = cartilage, malacia = soft). It's a pathology of softening affecting the joints and more particularly those of the knee (kneecap and femur).
This anomaly can be observed in several circumstances:
• the first is that of direct trauma. It is the cartilaginous lesion occurring before the fracture (fissure) of the cartilage.
• the second is that of common osteoarthritis. It is highly likely that the first stage of osteoarthritis begins with edema (swelling of the cartilage or closed chondropathy) that makes the cartilage less resistant and more vulnerable; this soft cartilage can then crack on its surface (open chondropathy) and these cracks will be more difficult to heal.
What is a gene?
- According to Mendel something was being stably passed down, unchanged, from parent to offspring through the gametes, over successive generations. He called these things as ‘factors’ now called as genes. Genes, therefore, are the units of inheritance.
- They contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism.
- Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene.
- There is no ambiguity that the genes are located on the DNA, it is difficult to literally define a gene in terms of DNA sequence.
- The DNA sequence coding for tRNA or rRNA molecule also defines a gene. A cistron is defined as a segment of DNA coding for a polypeptide, the structural gene in a transcription unit could be said as monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or polycistronic (mostly in bacteria or prokaryotes).

Answer:
Rapid progress in biomedical science has also encouraged the development of multiple successful medical technologies, but their translation into clinical use has posed complex scientific, cultural, and social problems. As demonstrated by the development of new acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) medications, the rise of these problems is spurring new interest in medical innovation.
Biomedical products are created for better results in medical technology including autoclave / sterilizer, anesthesia machine, aspiration/suction pump, and blood chemistry analyzer etcetra.
Factors influencing them includes harmful effect on other body parts ( beta blockers have harmful effect on heart), outdating technology, and introduction of evolved diseases that is not abl to cure with old products.
