Page: 52~57 Summary: Since the discovery of the Human Genome Project‚ we have been very successful with the use of this magnificent map. However‚ the commercialization of the genetic science is ahead of the real genetic science nowadays. People want to know everything they can with this DNA code even though the science are not currently supporting its thesis. But the scientists are making major breakthrough with the Genome because this past summer‚ the Food and Drug Administration gave

Organisms The Human genome is known to be the sequencing of about twenty thousand five hundred thousand genes that make up our human DNA‚ or the building block that tells our cells what to do. The government created project that is named the Human Genome Project started in 1990’s‚ and is trying to pick apart at the three billion chemical base pairs in a DNA strand. The full set of the information present in the form of the genes in living organism then forms its genome. Each individual person

Lifesaving operations‚ complex and detail calculations needed for space travel and the Human Genome project have all been made possible by the advent of computers. With so many benefits‚ there are bound to be drawbacks and it has been argued that Social Networking erodes our natural relationships by reducing our interactions from face to face meetings

Current technology has made what once seemed impossible‚ mapping the human genome‚ a reality within the next decade. What began over forty years ago with the discovery of the basic structure of DNA has evolved into the Human Genome Project. This is a fifteen-year‚ three billion dollar effort to sequence the entire human genetic code. The Project‚ under the direction of the U.S. National Institute of Health and the department of Energy is ahead of schedule in mapping what makes up an individual’s

BASIC ELEMENTS OF AN ETHICAL ORGANIZATION There are at least four elements which exist in organizations that make ethical behavior conducive within an organization. The four elements necessary to quantify an organization’s ethics are: 1) Written code of ethics and standards 2) Ethics training to executives‚ managers‚ and employees 3) Availability for advice on ethical situations (i.e. advice lines or offices) 4) Systems for confidential reporting. Good leaders strive to create a better and

reality? Genetic manipulation‚ also referred to as Genetic Engineering‚ is the manipulation of genomes of humans using biotechnology. This process allows people to choose certain genes such as hair color‚ eye color‚ and to produce a child in their favor. Although designer babies are becoming more popular today‚ there are certain precautions that should be taken towards the manipulation of human genomes using biotechnology‚ and many people struggle with the concept of designing a child.

I found the discovery of this lack of responsibility and accuracy in the realm of present day science incredible‚ and I ’ll admit I even laughed a little. I guess I had more faith in science than I realized. One argument against the idea of using race to identify modern humans states that we are not genetically
