How West Virginia’s grunting Whittakers got started

There are many genes in humans that increase the risk of being diagnosed with the disease. Before this study, only 65 genes were found to be related to the condition. There were 30 genes discovered that had never been linked to a disease. Many people play a role in the brain. Once they have discovered these genes, the researchers will look at how these genes function inside the brain.

7 out of 10 Americans suffer from the disease. Two percent of Americans are on the spectrum of autistic disease and it is estimated that one third of them have severe autistic disorder. It increases the chances that a damaged chromosome is passed on from one family member to another. It increases the chance that a child will be born with a double dose of one or more genetic problems. Between 20 and 25 thousand genes exist in the human body. Whittakers are the most inbred family in America. They didn’t know that their genetics were connected and their parents, or about the past. They were so young that they didn’t even remember their own names.

Blood relatives

All a person’s genes are connected to their mother or father. All genes can be either recessive or dominant. If a person has blue eyes he must have two copies of the gene from each parent. Both genes must have the same trait. The risk of two strangers transmitting a disease to their offspring is low, but the risk of transmitting an inherited trait is higher when there are two blood relatives in the family. The risk for two blood relatives to transmit the spleen gene to their children is much higher.

Autism

The family of insanity was sparked by the twins, who had two children and got married and had 15 kids of their own.

This increase in the risk of rare genetic defects because they are caused by a combination of genes. The genes are contained in the person’s chromosomes which are the nucleus of the cells of the body. If the condition is genetic, the genes that cause it are rare and often expressed. If there are two members of the same family having a child, the chances of passing on a rare genetic condition to their children will increase. A birth defect is not caused by inbreeding. Birth deformities are caused by a person having a damaged chromosome from an older relative. Parents told the filmer that they did not know that their genetic problems were due to inbreeding.

There are children in the family with intellectual disabilities and they live in poor conditions. This is not just true of autism but also genetic defects such as being born with extra fingers or toes or developing a mental illness.

The film’s director’s parents told him that they didn’t know their genetic problems were due to inbreeds. They said that they didn’t want their children to have to live in such poverty. They also said that they were proud of their children and happy with the way they were growing up.
