Please HELP I will give 85 points and Brainliest. Develop a logical argument about whether to use CRISPR/Cas9 to edit the human

genes that cause cystic fibrosis. Use the guidelines you created in Bioethics Part 1 and the things you have learned about genes and gene editing. Your argument can be for or against the approval of the gene therapy treatment. But, it must be backed up by the guidelines. If you feel like you need to change or modify any of your guidelines to support your argument, be sure to explain your reasoning.

Answer:

CRISPR-Cas9 is a DNA modification technique derived from a bacterial defense mechanism.

This breakthrough innovation allows the deletion and insertion of genes in a simple, fast and efficient way, much like "DNA scissors".

The CRISPR-Cas9 method is increasingly used in laboratories because it has several advantages over the DNA cutting enzymes developed before it.

First advantage, it is much easier to use (compared to other gene-editing tools). It has already allowed several teams of researchers to target several genes at once, including in human cells.

Other major advantages resulting from the simplicity of the system: its speed and its low cost. The CRISPR-Cas9 method takes only a few days (instead of a few months) and is at least ten times less expensive than those used before.

CRISPR-Cas9 is therefore a tool of disconcerting ease to modify the genome of many types of cells (to produce a protein for example), in bacteria, plants, animals and perhaps one day in humans.

mafiozo [28]

Minerals may be defined as the combination of two or more elements of a substance.

<u>Five criteria that exhibits a particle to be minerals; </u>

  • They are natural and not man-made.
  • Inorganic i.e. not made by any organism.
  • Minerals are solids, not liquid or gas.
  • They have a definite chemical structure.
  • The atoms in minerals are arranged systematically and are arranged in a repeated pattern.

Minerals are natural and we use it in our day to day life. Products like salt and even a pencil have minerals. Also, these minerals help the parts in the human body to grow faster and function properly.
