Genes are the building blocks of heredity. They are passed from parent to child. They hold DNA, the instructions for making proteins. Proteins do most of the work in cells. They move molecules from one place to another, build structures, break down toxins, and do many other maintenance jobs.Sometimes there is a mutation, a change in a gene or genes. The mutation changes the gene's instructions for making a protein, so the protein does not work properly or is missing entirely. This can cause a medical condition called a genetic disorder.You can inherit a gene mutation from one or both parents. A mutation can also happen during your lifetime.There are three types of genetic disorders:Single-gene disorders, where a mutation affects one gene. Sickle cell anemia is an example.Chromosomal disorders, where chromosomes (or parts of chromosomes) are missing or changed. Chromosomes are the structures that hold our genes. Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder.Complex disorders, where there are mutations in two or more genes. Often your lifestyle and environment also play a role. Colon cancer is an example.Genetic tests on blood and other tissue can identify genetic disorders.NIH: National Library of Medicine

Diarrhoea is a leading cause of death in children, with nearly 500,000 young lives lost to diarrhoea each year. Almost all these lives could be saved with a low-cost & widely available treatment - oral rehydration salts (ORS). A new study has revealed that ORS is under-prescribed in India; 50% of children with diarrhea did not receive this lifesaving treatment. There are several popular explanations for the under-prescription of ORS in India. What may be the major reason in your opinion?
