Cri Du Chat Syndrome Section 1 The genetic disorder Cri Du Chat stems from the deletion of a portion the p arm of chromosome 5 in the affected person. This deletion is seemingly spontaneous in most affected individuals. “Approximately 90% of cases results from a sporadic, or randomly-occurring, de novo deletion” (6. pg. 606). This deletion may include a fraction to the entire loss of the p arm of the fifth chromosome as a whole. Taking into consideration the very spontaneous nature of…

Trisomy X Trisomy x syndrome, also known as triple x and 47xxx, is characterized by the presence of an extra x chromosome in each cell of a female. Three x chromosomes are present, rather than a normal pair in the nuclei of body cells. The first published report of a women with triple x syndrome was Patricia A. Jacobs at Western General Hospital in Edinburg, Scotland, in 1959. The condition occurs in about 1 in 1,000 newborn girls. Five to 10 girls with triple x syndrome are born in the united…

Each year about four million babies are born around the world. Out of four million only three percent will be born with a genetic disorder and around one percent of the babies will be born with chromosomal abnormality. The reactions to these disorders vary from stares to happiness, resulting in the child feeling different or abnormal but it should not be a thing to frown upon. Ectodermal dysplasia is a group of syndromes that involve defects in the skin,hair, and nails. There are about more…

Through the past decade, a lot of syndromes have been discovered by different Scientists and some of them may be deadly such as meckel syndrome. (MGS) is a deadly and genetic disease caused by disorder in the genes and parents have a high potential to transfer it to their children. In fact, a study discovered using data from over one hundred and fifty cases of Meckel-Gruber syndrome, as accessed through the European Surveillance of Congenital Anomalies (EUROCAT) network, found the prevalence of…

Turner's syndrome is a rare condition that affects females. It results when a sex chromosome (X chromosome) is either missing or partially missing. Turner’s syndrome can cause a lot of different medical problems such as short height, puberty failure, heart defects, learning disabilities and social adjustment problems. It is sometimes diagnosed before birth, during infancy or during their early childhood. Occasionally the diagnosis is delayed until the teen or young adult years in those who have…

Cri du chat syndrome, also referred to as cat cry syndrome and 5p deletion, is a chromosomal disorder resulting from the deletion of the short arm, known as the p arm on chromosome 5 (1). This disease was first described in 1963 by a French geneticist, Jerome Lejeune as a hereditary congenital syndrome (1). Today, it is known as one of most frequent autosomal deletion syndromes that results from loss of the distal portion of chromosome 5 affecting the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT)…

Just as a change in environment can be a beneficial accommodation for students with sensory impairments, the same is for students with social and behavioral impairments (Hallahan, et al., 2014). For some students with ASD, a small change in environment will result in an angry outburst. In order to accommodate for this situation, it is important for the teacher to keep the classroom the same. Lifespan issues related to Autism Spectrum Disorder ASD can have lifelong effects on an individual that…

known as Down syndrome. This disorder is due to an extra chromosome in their genes which is the leading cause. However, a specific chromosome can also be damaged during cell replication, which can also increase their risk of getting Down syndrome and other disorders later on in their life that could eventually lead to death if not treated at the right time. Also, if a mother gives birth at a higher age, it also increases the risk of their child having Down syndrome. Therefore, children with Down…

ichael explains his case in a creative way. He has Down syndrome when the chromosomes came to make him, a normal chromosome broke, the broken piece moved and struck onto another chromosome.Its called spontaneous translocation.No one knows why this happens or how to prevent it. He starts to talk like how he is like everyone else. All he does is learns things a different way. It takes him longer to process information and form his thoughts and communicate with others. He gets frustrated when…
