Some genetic mutations that occur during Meiosis or replication are not passed genetically to offspring.
Though there are some genetic disorders that occur during replication or Meiosis that are passed onto offspring not all are. Some non-inheritable disorders are due to random events that occur in reproductive cells. An example of an event in a reproductive cell is the gain or loss of chromosome. All changes in somatic cells however are never heritable. Angelman syndrome is a genetic mutation that affects the nervous system of a person. This disorder occurs in when their is a loss of function in the UBE3A gene most likely due to segment deletion. Angelman syndrome can also be caused when a child inherits two copies of the gene from their
