Genetic - Something that’s in your genes, that’s comes to you through your parents or family blood line. Scientists and geneticists are trying to determine whether Alzheimer’s is genetic and can be inherited.
Will I develop Alzheimer’s because my mother and her sister had Alzheimer’s. Or did something other than family connection (their inherited genes) cause this disease in them?
