Question

Which of the following statements describe how technology and research changed the understanding of genetics? Select all that apply.
Past genetic knowledge has mostly been replaced.

Past genetic knowledge was incorporated and adapted.

New technology has resulted in only minor advances in genetics.

Early researchers were hampered by a lack of knowledge of DNA structure and function.

Answer 1

Answer:

• Past genetic knowledge has mostly been replaced.
• Early researchers were hampered by a lack of knowledge of DNA structure and function.

Explanation:

Genetics is the part of biology that studies heredity, that is, how traits are passed down from generation to generation. Many technologies have been created so that scientific research can find new genetic discoveries and facilitate our understanding on this subject.

The first scientific research that tried to explain genetic phenomena was created long ago, but this research generated an archaic knowledge that can be replaced thanks to technology and scientific advancement in this area. This archaic knowledge is the result of research where researchers were unaware of the existence of the DNA molecule, which is the main vehicle in the transmission of heredity.

Unbeknownst to DNA, these researchers attributed heredity to elements that do not correspond with what actually happens, but we cannot dismiss the importance of such research for the technologies and genetic knowledge we have today.

Answer 2

Genetic research is generally meant to describe researching your DNA and chromosomes in your tiny cells. Some scientists say that Genetic research is the key to …solving a lot of difficult problems such as genetic mutations or disorders. Through genetic research, people now know what DNA is and what it does, people have found out the cause of disorders such as Haemophilia or Cystic Fibrosis all through generic research
