Does genetic disorder occurs in animals?


Humans have genetic disorder might be due to deletion, duplication or translocation therefore causes chromosome abnormabilites.....The increase or decrease in the autosomal or sex chromosomes.....

I was wondering if animals have them too?? From what i know the only mutation tat animals might have is albinism.....They wouldnt have like Hemophilia, Down Syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome or maybe Turner syndrome like humans do rite??

Yes it does
every living thing has genetic abnormalities that occur
of course, there are many variations, because the genetics themselves are different within the various orders of animal life--- but the abnormalities are there --- for sure !!

yep, two headed snakes, calves with extra legs comming out its sides, all sorts of things. they have their own diseases.

Animials don't get the same diseases caused by genetic mutation that humans get. But they have their own set of genetic disorders, just like plants and people.

A genetic disorder in the animal world is usually killed off by natural selection if it prohibits the animal thriving in its natural environment.

However, genetic disorders have changed many species to thrive in an environment that was changing.

I.E. moths that color matched their newly changed environment were eaten less by predators.

yes animals have genetic disorders to. Every living being which has a DNA can have genetic disorders. Radiation causes mutation of cells in an organism and it can lead to cause disorders in the organism.

Yep, they can have the same genetic errors causing similar disease, though since their DNA is different the outcome isn't identical to human problems.
