By understanding DNA and gene expression, humans have been able to understand how genetic diseases are caused, therefore they have been able to devise gene therapy and other technologies to treat such disease. Second, the understanding has also allowed humans to devise plants that are resistant to pests and drought hence increasing crop yields.
A negative aspect of this understanding is the issue of bioterrorism. In the wrong hands, this technology can be used against society. The technology can be used to modify organisms to make them deliberately harmful to humans. Second is the issue of bioethics. This technology can be used to enhance humans and result to an ‘arms race’ between human races that can tear down the social fabric.

Answer:
As this is DNA replication, this is the unwounding process
Explanation:
In DNA replication, the parent DNA to be replicated is unwound to enable access of the replication machinery (replisome) to this genetic material. The origin of replication will be identified first, which in the prokaryotes is only one, and in the eukaryotes, we have many. This sites are recognized by specific sequences on the genome. after this, melting of the DNA occurs at this origin creating a replication bubble and two replication forks. This allows for the unwinding of the DNA by the enzyme Helicases in the direction of the replication fork. Another enzyme present in this step is also the single strand binding proteins (SSB). These proteins function in the prevention of re-anealing of the unwound DNA strand by attaching themselves to each strands. Another enzyme called the topoisomerases also function here by reducing the torque (twisting) produced upstream of the replication fork as result of DNA unwounding. An example is the gyrase
