Since sand is a part of Earth and there are sand benders in Avatar, and since glass is made out of sand that means GLASS BENDERS

Not nessacarily. sand is heated to cause a chemical change. therefore not earth any more.

Earthbend301: Crystals are totally different from glass crystals are compressed.

Iggy: When did she bend glass?

Kaveenito: Metal is also different. A: Metal is earth B: Even if it's an Alloy there is no chemical change involved it's just a mix of different pure metals AKA earth.

if the ability to bend is in fact genetic, then possibly through use of mutation or perhaps mixture of genes (firebending parent x earthbending parent) could lead to someone with that bizarre ability...maybe.

and while that possibility is open, can someone be born with two bending elements?

Metal isn't earth, but since it was earth that was chemically changed, Toph was able to figure out how to bend it.

metal is earth. a Metal Alloy such as steel is a mixture of different metals that all come from the earth. No chemical change is made such as in Glass. True heat is need to mix them because they are solids they need to heat them to a liquid like state to mix them but nothing changes on the sub-atomic level. It's like mixing sugar and water.

well scientifically it would be seen as genetic. in a more magical term we could just call it bending. but come on dont you think a waterbenders kids would inherit the ability? and if two different benders had kids would it be possible for them to have two bending elements?
