letic performance. describe at least two genetic modifications that would improve the performance of an athlete. make sure to mention the body system(s) affected as well as the specific goal of the therapy.
YES THAT FIRST SENTENCE IS VERY TRUE.YES, GENE DOPING IS USED BY MANY ATHLETES AROUND THE WORLD.IT CAUSES SEVERAL EFFECTS LIKE: a) increased extraordinary hematocrit b) increased thrombotic activity c) autoimmune anemia,ETC. ANY TWO GENETIC MODIFICATIONS THAT WOULD IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF AN ATHLETE ARE: a.gene therapy should be given to produce more hormones in the body. b. gene therapy is given to athletes because they have been used to study and model cancer (the oncomouse), obesity, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, substance abuse, anxiety, aging and Parkinson disease to check for the athletes.
