Please conduct your own research on the Human Genome Project and respond to the following discussion:
The conclusion of the Human Genome Project and the successful mapping of every human gene means that genetic prophecy may soon be the norm for us all. One example I can think of is that some women who have tested positive for the breast cancer gene have had preemptive mastectomies, even though they have not yet developed or may never develop breast cancer. If you had the chance to map your genetic make-up, would you want to know your future chances of getting certain diseases? Why or why not?
