Cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a recessive allele. You need to inherit two copies of the faulty allele to have CF. If you just have one copy of the faulty allele, you are a carrier but have no symptoms. If two carriers have a child between them, there is a one in four chance of that child having the disorder.
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease. For someone to get cystic fibrosis, both parents must be carriers of the gene that causes it and then pass it on. That means 25% of the children of such parents will have cystic fibrosis. Boys and girls are equally likely to get the disease. About 10 million Americans carry the gene and do not know it.
