Though this may seem like science fiction‚ this future is getting closer and closer thanks to advances in genetics. Many people may envy this future‚ but its consequences may be horrendous. Editing the human genome should never become a reality due to many harmful and drastic consequences. Currently‚ technologies such as CRISPR are allowing for the editing of

Genes are codes for certain function that are found in DNA. The combination of genes is what makes each individual unique. MCADD is a genetic disorder‚ caused by a mutation or damage to the gene‚ ACADM‚ that codes for the enzyme‚ medium chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase. This results in the enzyme being absent or existing in minimal quantities. An enzyme increases the rate of a chemical reaction. Our body needs many enzymes in order to make the materials needed for our bodies to function and be healthy

increased resistance to herbicides or improved nutritional content. The enhancement of desired traits has traditionally been undertaken through breeding‚ but conventional plant breeding methods can be very time consuming and are often not very precise. Genetic engineering‚ on the other hand‚ can create plants with the exact desired trait very rapidly and with great accuracy. For example‚ plant geneticists can isolate a gene responsible for drought tolerance and insert that gene into a different plant. The

Neurofibromatosis Full description Neurofibromatosis occurs in 1 in 3‚000 to 4‚000 individuals in the United States. Although many affected people inherit the disorder‚ between 30 to 50 percent of new cases occur because of a spontaneous genetic mutation from unknown causes. Once this mutation has taken place‚ the mutant gene can be passed on to succeeding generations.  Symptoms There are many symptoms for Neurofibromatosis. These include: six or more light brown spots on the
