what are the differences between congenital and acquired diseases ? give examples
Dear Student,
Congenital disorder: A congenital disease is the disease that you are born with, and it could be inherited or not. Eg. sickle cell anemia
Acquired disorder: The disorder that is not present at birth, but is developed by an individual in response to the environment and not subject to hereditary transmission. Eg. diabetes
Hope this helps.
Cheers !!
