Eugenics is defined as the study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics. Genetic testing has been around for decades‚ but a breakthrough happened in the 1970’s when researchers found that it is possible to do genetic tests on babies before they were born. In the 1990’s the main focus turned to identifying genes that showed a person’s chance of developing cancers. Genetic testing has the ability to impact the world which is why in future years it should not be limited. This is because

This rapid increase in animal testing heightened attention towards the abuse of animals during experimentation. This eventually led to the ban of animal testing for cosmetics in 1998 in Britain.
