Scientific Research

a.

i. Through various scientific research that has been conducted, they have become able to conduct gene therapy which involves the modification of DNA, and some of the genetic problems have been eradicated due to the modification of the DNA (Kramer, 2018). The lives of the new young ones have been saved after gene therapy has been conducted to the parents who may have given birth to the children who have genetic problems. Though genetic interventions are some of the people may apply it unethically in society.
