Question

Which is a goal of the Human Genome Project?

a to identify the 3 billion genes that comprise the human genome
b to sequence the genome of every living individual
c to address the ethical consequences of genomic research
d to measure the length of human DNA

Answer 1

C. to address the ethical consequences of genomic research

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A comes very close to the correct answer but is not the main goal. Although the scientists were after decoding our genome and mapping our genes and such, ultimate goal was also to address the ethical consequences of genomic research because your genome is your blueprint (i.e. your genome makes you).
