- Human Genome ProjectIn 2003, the Human Genome Project was successfully completed, determining the exact sequence of the entire human genome, which is made up of 3 billion nucleotide base pairs. The data generated from the Human Genome Project is freely available online to anyone. Many researches and innovations stemmed from the HGP, allowing the identifications of 1 800 disease genes. Many of the corporations using the results from the HGP are privately funded, and research is being done for profit even though the HGP results are provided freely.Identify one advantage and one disadvantage of corporate funding and patenting genetic research results.arrow_forwardRelate the importance of the large poputations of studies in 2012: The 1000 genomes project using as genomic landmarks Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)arrow_forwardEVOLUTION LINK DNA technology, such as the production of transgenic animals, is possible only because widely different organisms have essentially identical genetic systems (DNA RNA protein).
