ANSWER: The completion of the Human Genome Project

EXPLANATION:

Human Genome Project (HGP) was completed in April, 2003. Genome varies from one individual to another.

The project involved mapping and sequencing of some people and in other to get each chromosome full sequence in individuals.

However, at the beginning of this project, concerns like ownership and privacy of personal genetic information began to spring up. People are afraid that employers may have access to their genetic information and would reject persons with health issues indicated by their unique genes and health insurance companies may also not provide insurance to people that have deficiency.

In the view of this concern, the United States in 1996 passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) which guides against the non-consensual and unauthorized release of health information of individuals.

How will you describe the sequence of oxygen carbon dioxide and blood flow in you our words?
lakkis [162]
The flow of oxygen is simply summarized as entering the body through the lungs and being absorbed into the blood. From there, the oxygenated blood is carried to the heart and then pumped all over the body. From there, the oxygen is absorbed by cells that need it for respiration. 
Carbon dioxide is generated via respiration of glucose in muscle and body cells. It then passes into the blood and is carried out to the lungs, where it diffuses out and is breathed out.
Blood follows a double circulation pattern, where deoxygenated is pumped to the lungs from the heart then goes back to the heart to be pumped into the rest of the body.
