Have you ever heard of genetic diseases and disorders? A "genetic disease" is usually a disease that we can inherit, from our parents. When our parents create us, they give us copies of their genes. Copies of their DNA. Look at this list: http://www.familytreemagazine.com/article/CommonGenetically-Inherited-Diseases It's a BIG list of all sorts of disorders that can be affected by the genes that we get from our parents.
