The world can be a scary place. There are many disease causing organisms and genetic disorders that can make life difficult. As you read the chapter, be thinking about your family history of genetic disorders, how these disorders are passed on through generations, and what types of testing can be done to look for these alleles. In this exercise you will reflect on the pros and cons of genetic testing and how it may affect you.

Hematology

Hematology is the branch of biology. Hematology is the medical field that deals with the treatment of blood disorders and cancers, such as hemophilia, leukemia, lymphoma, and sickle-cell anemia. Hematologists and hematopathologists are medical professionals who specialize in illnesses of the blood and its components.
