Genetics Research Project Genetic Engineering for Treatment or Cure of Disease and Disorders By Corin Geoghegan and Sara Kelly

Basic Principals of Genetics ,[object Object]

In co-dominant the alleles are neither dominant nor recessive. Therefore neither alleles is masked (covered) in the offspring.

The offspring gets the half the number of chromosomes from each parent resulting in an offspring of a variation of the parent. ,[object Object]

An ethical concern about the human genome project is who should have access to genetic testing information. Also the privacy and confidentiality of the information. A social concern leads to a question: Should a person have knowledge that they are going to die?

GINA forbids incurrence companies to discriminate based on genetic testing. Also insurers are not able to request genetic testing.,[object Object]

Human chromosomal abnormalities- Sex-chromosome abnormalities may also be caused by nondisjunction of one or more sex chromosomes. Any combination (up to XXXXY) produces maleness. Males with more than one X are usually underdeveloped and sterile. XXX and XO women are known, although in most cases they are sterile

Researchers are learning that nearly all conditions and diseases have a genetic component. Some disorders, such as sickle cell anemia and cystic fibrosis are caused by mutations in a single gene. The causes of many other disorders, however, are much more complex,[object Object]

How are karyotypes used to predict genetic disorders? ,[object Object],[object Object]

Why should we use Genetic Engineering to Cure or Treat Disorders and Diseases?Agument 1 ,[object Object]

We should use Genetic engineering to cure disorders and diseases because, it could help us cure AIDS and HIV, these are very dangerous disease! If we use Genetic Engineering to cure AIDS and HIV there would be no one to spread it to or no one to suffer from there 2 deadly diseases.
