Genetic engineering is the manipulation of DNA within the cells of plants and animals‚ through synthesis‚ alteration‚ or repair‚ to ensure that certain harmful traits will be eliminated in offspring and that desirable traits will appear and be passed on. From the time Anna was born‚ she was poked and prodded for stems cells and bone marrow. As she gets older she realizes what is going to eventually happen to her and why her parents “brought”

(THIS WAS AN INFORMATIVE SPEECH I DID FOR MY COM220 CLASS ON THE STAGES OF SPINAL CORD INJURY RESEARCH. IT ACTED AS AN INTRODUCTION TO MY PERSUASIVE SPEECH ON THE BENEFITS OF STEM CELL RESEARCH) There are about a quarter of a million people in the United States living with spinal cord injuries. In addition‚ between 7‚600 and 10‚000 new injuries occur each year. Nearly half of these new injuries will occur in young people between the ages of 16 and 30.
