"Researchers have identified more than 4,000 diseases that are caused by mutations"(3). It made it so that his lip was missing in the middle top lip. Instead there was just a gap there. This was negative for him because sometime it just made simple things hard like eating or drinking water. It is also bad because there is no real way to fix it without huge risk. Clearly, this shows that genetics can have a huge impact on personal health.]]> 2017-12-07 01:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kasthenry/l7dwb22e7djv/wish/213958630 kasthenry https://padlet.com/kasthenry/l7dwb22e7djv/wish/213958701 Lots of things environmentally can affect you. “Mold and dust can exacerbate and contribute to the development of chronic conditions like asthma and allergies”(2). The quality of air in your home can make it so that you can get various diseases and get sick. Another example is water quality. “Water containing lead, often caused by the lead pipes used in older construction, can cause serious damage to the brain, kidneys, nervous system, and red blood cells”(3). Clearly, you must make sure you have clean water running through your home because it can really mess you up if you don’t.]]> 2017-12-07 01:25:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kasthenry/l7dwb22e7djv/wish/213958701
