This document discusses genetic disorders, their causes, symptoms, types, diagnosis, and treatment/prevention. The key points are: 1. Genetic disorders occur due to mutations in genes from parents that cause proteins to malfunction or be missing, disrupting cellular processes. 2. The leading causes are mutations in one or multiple genes inherited from parents or occurring spontaneously, and chromosomal abnormalities. 3. Symptoms vary but can include cognitive issues, developmental delays, physical abnormalities, and medical conditions depending on the disorder. 4. Genetic disorders are categorized as monogenic, multifactorial, mitochondrial, or chromosomal depending on their genetic basis. 5. Diagnosis involves genetic
