Question

I need help asp due in about an hour. List three kinds of information that can be learned by sequencing DNA. Also list three specific things that have been learned from the sequence of the human genome.

Answer 1

1. any genetic information can be found through sequencing such as, eye colour, hair colour, and skin colour

2.

Improved genetic testing to gauge predisposition for disease

Tracing genes to diseases and birth defects

Creating customized therapies based on genetic profiles

Manipulating or repairing DNA to stave off disease

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

These bases provide the underlying genetic basis (the genotype) for telling a cell what to do, where to go and what kind of cell to become (the phenotype).

Whole genome sequencing is a lot like weather forecasting. It doesn't predict exactly what will happen, but gives you the chances of something happening. This means that it will tell you more about your risk for a certain disease, like diabetes, not if you have diabetes or not.
