Part 8
Which detail from the text best supports your answer for part A?
The findings of the Human Genome Project, begun in 1990, will help answer these questions and many others. To find the answers, scientists collected blood, hair, skin cells and salive samples of people
from all over the world
Now that the sequencing is finished, researchers have begun the long process of analyzing the results to find out how these genes function. To scientists, this analysis is like Europe's decovery of the New
World
When the project first began, the medical world knew of about 100 human disease peries. Because of the project, scientists have identified more than 1400 disease genus
By studying how these genes work, medical researchers can try to improve treatments. This could include developing more effective medicines as well as manipulating the games themselves to cure or even prevent illness
