The following are the common types genetic disorders;

• Down Syndrome- A condition where a genetic chromosome 21 causes developmental and intellectual disorder

• Hemophilia-A genetic disorder in which blood clots  in an abnormal way

• Sickle Cell Anemia-a group of disorder that makes the misshapes and breakdown of red blood cells

• Thalassemia-a blood disorder where the blood contains lower-than-normal amounts of oxygen carrying protein.

• Cystic fibrosis, which is an inherited disorder that causes damage to the lungs and the digestive system

• Huntington’s disease which is an inherited nerve cell condition where the brain breaks down over time

• Duchenne muscular dystrophy which is an inherited disorder of progressive muscular weakness especially in boys

• Fragile X syndrome a genetic disorder that causes intellectual disability.

Genetic disorders can be grouped into three different categories. Single gene disorders result from a change or mutation in a single cell. Cystic fibrosis is an example of this type of disorder. Chromosome disorders are caused by too few or too many genes located on chromosomes, or other changes in chromosomes. Down syndrome is a type of chromosome disorder. Small changes in genes along with environmental factors cause complex, or multifactorial, disorders. Both cancer and heart disease fall into this third category of genetic disorders.

Predict the dominant type of bonding by considering electronegativity.
Vlad1618 [11]
If the atoms that are bonding have identical electronegativities, then it's a completely nonpolar covalent bond. This doesn't happen in the real world unless the two atoms are of the same element. In a practical sense, any two elements with an electronegativity difference less than 0.3 is considered to be nonpolar covalent.
As the difference between the atoms increases, the covalent bond becomes increasingly polar. At a polarity difference of 1.7 (this changes depending on who you ask) we consider it no longer to be a covalent bond and to be the electrostatic interactions characteristic in an ionic compound.
Just so you know, you shouldn't take these values as exact. ALL interactions between adjacent atoms involve some sharing of electrons, no matter how big the difference in electronegativity. Sure, you wouldn't expect much sharing in KF, but there's a little sharing of electrons anyway. There's certainly no big cutoff that happens at a difference of 1.7 Pauling Electronegativity units.

Answer:

Deer’s Point of View


What would you do if you did not have clean oxygen to breathe?  The air is being polluted because of your factories and car fumes. It’s causing global warming and even negatively affecting the Polar Bears. You need to be aware of the other living organisms and environments. Remember, you can’t turn back time, so don’t wait until many more species are extinct, act now.
