Patient's question:
There is a child who, when he grew up to be 20 years old, went to the hospital for a DNA test. The child's genes were different from those of his parents. What I mean is that this child was born to these parents. The child's appearance was also different from his previous appearance, with a huge change in his looks. During the DNA test, the child had no blood relationship with his parents. Could the child's genes be due to a genetic mutation? What caused it? Was it formed naturally?Doctor's answer:
Gene mutations include two major categories: natural mutations and artificial induction. Gene mutations occur frequently, but not all gene mutations that cause diseases necessarily do so.
