Cystic Fibrosis affects both males and females, but is not contagious to healthy individuals. Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease caused by mutations (changes) in a gene on chromosome 7, one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes that children inherit from their parents.Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes in their DNA. The CF gene is found on chromosome number 7.It takes two copies of a CF gene-one inherited from each parent-for a child to show symptoms of CF. Persons born with only one CF gene (inherited from only one parent) and one normal gene are CF carriers.umans have 23 pairs of chromosomes in their DNA. The CF gene is found on chromosome number 7.

The first thing you need to realize is that cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease. Each human being has 23 pairs of chromosomes in each cell of the body.It is a mutation on the seventh pair that causes CF. This gene is very complex, and well over 1,000 different kinds mutations on this gene can manifest as CF.s a genetic disorder, it is passed along from parents to child. In the case of CF, two CF genes must be inherited, one from each parent. This makes CF a recessive disorder, because two genes are needed for the condition to manifest.
