Potentialities of the human genome project

Describe two positive potentialities of the human genome project, and one negative possibility. Please expand: According to this website http://www.ornl.gov/sci/techresources/Human_Genome/home.shtml the goal of the project is to identify the 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA. There are many positive aspects: - if people have genetic diseases, knowing what genes cause the disease can then be used to administer a gene therapy to replace the defective genes - another benefit would be to parents who want to have children. If one has a genetic disease, then the disease could be passed on to their children. If the human genome is identified, the the parents can map their genetics, a... click for more

Advantage of designer pers... click for more
