The name osteogenesis imperfecta doesn't mean that it's passed through the genes!. That's the name of the condition!. Having said that, it is a genetic disorder, which does mean that it's passed down through the genes!.

There are many pages on the internet that give more information about the condition!. Simply type "osteogenesis imperfecta" (without the inverted commas) into the search bar of your internet browser!. I've only listed the one site as it's not too heavy going to understand!.
