For a long time people were frightened by various deviations fromnorms. Because of the weak development of science, the pathologies that emerged were explained by the interference of evil forces. As a result, a person was avoided, expelled from the city or avoided. If his pathology seemed amusing, the poor fellow was sent to the circus for public viewing.
Relatively recently it became known that by itselfrepresent human mutations. When scientists found a logical explanation for various deviations, the surrounding people began to treat the sufferers more tolerantly. Only somewhere at the subconscious level, there is still a distrust of such people, although a genetic mutation is not a contagious disease. Simply just in case, many prefer to stay away from the troubled person, as he at any time may need help.
Human mutations are considered to be quite rarephenomenon, since changes occur only in isolated cases. Because of a small failure, the chromosomes can be reconstructed - and a special child appears. True, most of the serious mutations lead to fetal death in the early stages. If the child survives, then it is difficult, because even the development of science does not save the baby from oblique glances. Even modern people can talk about some kind of amorphous payment for sins, although bad ecology may be to blame for pathology.
DNA mutations can be caused by variousreasons. So, scientists distinguish spontaneous and induced mutations. If there is a spontaneous mutation, no one is responsible for it. Just happened a momentary malfunction, which affected the development of the fetus. If the mutation of a person is caused by some specific reasons, they speak of induced changes.
Induced mutations appear due toexposure to radiation, chemicals or biological factors. If there is a gradual change in the temperature regime, the body receives certain signals. They are fixed in the memory of the chromosome - and then passed on to subsequent generations. Such mutations are positive, but unfortunately, they are too few. At the same time, it is difficult to talk about the usefulness of these or those changes, since for different people the same mutation can be good and evil.
There are also neutral mutations that are notbring neither harm nor good. True, for humans, almost all mutations will have a negative value. Even if the changes are only superficial, the person is still in the spotlight. Of course, others will diligently pretend that they do not notice anything, but all equal glances cannot be avoided. A similar situation is observed if a person has excessive hair on his body or his fingers and legs have partially grown together. On the one hand, such abnormalities are not lethal, but they are a serious cosmetic defect. On the other hand, they do not affect the state of health, but deliver only psychological discomfort. If a person learns to be calm about curious views, you can live a normal life with such mutations.
Quite differently, doctors are seriousmutations that greatly change the whole way of life. In such cases, the internal organs are damaged, the normal structure of the limbs changes, or mental abnormalities appear. Such human mutations have severe consequences for general health, are often inherited - and turn all life into a struggle for survival. Surrounding people treat this type of deviation with a slight touch of disgust and sympathy, which further complicates the lives of sick people.
People need to rethink their attitude towardsdisabled and friends with various disabilities. It is necessary to understand that every person has the right to his portion of respect, love and tenderness. Just do not treat such people with sympathy and undisguised pity, since this can kill the faith in justice in them. Just learn to see friends in them, interesting interlocutors - and then any deviations from the norm will become secondary.
