How to use "Consanguine" in context?
Consanguinity is a relationship between people who are closely related. The closer the relationship, the more likely they are to have genetic problems. Conditions that can be passed along through a consanguine relationship include genetic diseases, an increased risk of birth defects, and disorders like mental retardation.
Because consanguinity is such a powerful predictor of health problems, couples who are closely related should consider getting married only if there is a very strong reason for doing so. Genetic counseling is also a helpful tool for couples who are considering whether to get married because of consanguinity.
