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

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

5. 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?

7. 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

11. 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.
