    This document discusses the pathophysiology of genetic disorders resulting from faulty fertilization. Predisposing factors include age and genetics, while nutritional deficiencies in protein and carotene can precipitate issues. Faulty fertilization can occur when an empty egg is fertilized by a single sperm with full chromosomes, or a sperm that did not undergo meiosis fertilizes a normal egg, resulting in an abnormal number of chromosomes and a nonviable fetus.
