The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels
LuckyWell [14K]
The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels are low.
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disease which results from mutations of genes for enzymes involved in the biochemical steps of production of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids or sex steroids from cholesterol by the adrenal glands (steroidogenesis). <span>Low cortisol production results in rising levels of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) because cortisol usually inhibits ACTH production. This increased ACTH production induces overgrowth (hyperplasia) and overactivity of the steroid-producing cells of the adrenal cortex.</span>

Schach [20]

Answer:

LHON (Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy): Is a disease that is characterized by loss of vision in young adults.

Sickle cell anemia: Is a disease characterized by production of abnormally shaped red blood cells, that is, not round in shape as normal but are 'sickle' shaped or elongated/crescent shaped.  

Both diseases are heritable But LHON is caused by mutations existing in the mitochondrion thus only inherited maternally.

Sickle cell anemia is caused by mutations in the HBB gene which produces the beta subunit of hemoglobin. It is inherited from recessive genes of both parents.
