Is a recessive, hereditary disease that is life threatening because of overproduction mucus in vital organs such as the lungs

The cystic fibrosis is a condition, in which the secretion of mucus in some vital organs such as lungs, pancreas, and stomach becomes sticky and thick.

This condition is caused by the inheritance of the recessive gene responsible for the development of the cystic fibrosis.

The thick and the sticky mucus gets lined up on the walls of the organ and causes the clogging of the tubes and the ducts, hence, instead of providing lubrication they act as clogging agent and causing major damage to some vital organs, especially, lungs and the pancreas.
