Cystic fibrosis is the most common lethal genetic disease in the United States. It strikes one out of every 2,500 people of Euro
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer and explanation:

Cystic fibrosis occurs due to mutations in the CFTR gene, causing deficient ion transport in patients through cell membranes with a reduction in the amount of water from bronchial secretion.

This decrease makes the secretion more adherent to the bronchial walls and compromises the cleaning of these channels, facilitating pulmonary infections.

The disease also causes the blockage of the pancreas ducts, reducing the arrival of digestive enzymes in the intestines.

For an individual to develop cystic fibrosis by mutations, it is necessary to have both chromosomes 7 with the mutated CFTR gene. This means that a person needs to inherit mutated chromosome 7 from his mother and father.
