Which of the following genetic diseases is NOT passed from the parents to children? Cystic fibrosis Color blindness

Both cystic fibrosis and color blindness are genetic conditions that are typically inherited from parents to their children. Here's a brief overview of each: 1. **Cystic Fibrosis**: - **Inheritance Pattern**: Autosomal recessive. - **Description**: Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene. A child must inherit two copies of the defective gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition. Parents who each carry one defective gene are typically asymptomatic carriers. 2. **Color Blindness**: - **Inheritance Pattern**: Most commonly X-linked recessive. - **Description**: Color blindness, particularly red-green color blindness, is usually inherited. Since the gene responsible is located on the X chromosome, males (with one X chromosome) are more frequently affected, while females (with two X chromosomes) are typically carriers unless they inherit two defective genes. **Conclusion**: Both cystic fibrosis and color blindness are inherited genetic disorders. Therefore, neither of them is "NOT passed from the parents to children." If the question intended to include additional options, please provide them for a more accurate response.
