Cases of strange genetic changes in the world
In the present world, there have been many mutations of genes that have always surprised us all.
1. The werewolf family
3 sisters Savita, 23, Monish, 19, Savitri, 15 - and their mother, Anita Sambhaji Raut (India) suffer from an extremely rare mutation, with an impact rate of 1 / 1 billion people, making their whole body and face covered with hair and they continue to grow day by day.
The situation is called Werewolf Syndrome - making cells in areas that rarely grow hair - still expanding and enabling them to flourish. Sometimes it only affects some special areas, sometimes it affects the whole body.
Unfortunately, there is currently no method to treat the syndrome, and they only rely on the help of a special hair removal cream.
2. 3-year-old athlete
Looking at the picture above, one would have guessed that it was just a boy up to 3. A rare genetic mutation known as the Myostatin-Related Muscle Hypertrophy, caused the boy Liam Hoekstra (Michigan-USA) to eat. as flagship (6 big meals a day).
The defect in the genetic code has caused her muscle mass to grow excessively and he can lift heavy objects in the family that adults should shake their heads as well.
My abnormality was shown very early when 2 days old I was able to walk. I also participated in the Iron Cross competition - where people show their ability to support themselves just by hand.
It is known that there are only about 100 such cases in the world today, and it does not have negative effects on health.
3. Twin sisters with 2 opposite skin colors
Less than 1 year old but Kian and Remee - 2 English girls surprised the world when their parents first shared their pictures in newspapers. They could not believe that it was two twins because one had dark skin, and the other was white.
A lot of people ask my mother why she wears clothes for the same children, and they are all shocked when they are explained by the young mother, who are twins.
It is known that this young couple has a white mother and a black father.
As explained by scientists, skin color is determined by seven different types of genes that work together.
If both parents are crossbred, their eggs and sperm will contain a combination of genetic code for both black and white. The ratio of the above case is 1/1 million cases.
If the egg and sperm contain only the white color gene, the baby will show only white color.
4. Family without fingerprints
A type of skin-related mutation called SMARCAD1 , has made a Swiss family without fingerprints.
The findings were published in the American Journal of Human Genetics: Human fingerprints are fully formed before 24 weeks after fertilization and they will not have any changes throughout life.
However, factors affecting the formation of fingerprints during embryonic development - still a mystery to date.
Scientists believe that the findings not only study the formation of fingerprints, but also help us understand more about the mysterious aspects of human development and gender.
