Negative Although genetic engineering may seem like the key to a healthy‚ disease free population not enough is known about genetic engineering‚ and human genes to make it safe. The human genome is very complicated‚ often times one sequence of genes has control over multiple different physical attributes of a person‚ this means that by altering one gene sequence scientists could very easily accidentally alter multiple different attributes of humans. Also scientists have discovered that even when

Kenneth Reynolds C. Elegans Paper April 20‚ 2013 Dr. Yong Xiang C. Elegans – Wonderful Creatures of Science! We have been studying genetics recently in BIO and I have realized that I actually do find genetics really interesting‚ because of its complexity and probability. The different combinations and variables make it very interesting to me‚ an avid risk take and gambler‚ because of the unknown. Genetics make – up a huge portion of how we act‚ interact with others‚ our appearance entails

When the liver begins to deteriorate and is unable to function as it normally would because of long lasting‚ or chronic‚ injury‚ the diagnosis would is called cirrhosis. As time progresses‚ scar tissue begins to replace the healthy liver tissue and prevent proper blood flow through the liver. The largest internal organ in the human body is the liver. The liver plays a significant role in metabolism. According to the National Institute for health‚ it is stated‚ “The liver has many functions

be the future of genetics‚ a new form of gene therapy known as CRISPR is one of the most revolutionary breakthroughs in history. The argument I would like to make is that although CRISPR has the capability to prevent serious disorders such as cystic fibrosis and Huntington’s disease‚ it is too dangerous given its novelty and safety and ethical concerns. Having discussed this technology in several classes‚ I have a strong understanding of both the potential benefits and repercussions associated with

Health Status A mixture of genetics and other factors can affect a child or young persons health. There maybe conditions such as Cystic Fibrosis (lung disease) sickle cell disease (abnormal red blood cells) diabetes etc that all have an impact‚ even general things like the common cold or viruses can have an affect on a child.
