Biogenetic is the study of genes how it controls how our body works
Genes are like they give instructions to body how to grow how to look and how to stay healthy
Everyone has thousands of genes that inherit in their parents
Scientist in biogenetic study these genes to understand how people’s are infected how to treat and how to prevent them
Why biogenetic is important
Biogenetic help us
- Understanding the the inherit diseases like sickle cell anemia
- Create personalised medicines just medicines made for ur body
- Use gene therapy to fix faulty genes and cure diseases
- Learn how gene affects behaviour aging and mental health
- Improve crops and food using biogenetic
How it works - DNA and genes
Dna is chemical in cell and genes are piece of DNA that carries genetic information
2.Genetic testing
Doctors can test a person’s gene to find out that they carry any diseases or might be sick in future
3.Gene editing( CRISPR )
New tools edit genes like correcting a spelling mistake in a book
Examples
- Treating sickle cell diseases by gene therapy
- Helping cancer patients get the right medicine
- Creating crops that grow in cold and dry places
- Making vaccines using genetic tool ( like mRNA for covid 19 )
Here some questions for u
1 . Should we allow to change gene in unborn babies ?
2. Who owns our genetic information ?
3. How can we make sure everyone has access to these treatment ?
4. Can dinosaur DNA be used to create new organism using biogenetic
