hat his brother would have the best possible chances for a successful life. Some of the traits mentioned in GATTACA included intelligence, height and any possibility of inheritable diseases. If you decide to have a child one day and are given the opportunity to select for special traits, would you do so? EXPLAIN Why or why not?
I would probably want to give my child one or two specific traits like intelligence or no inheritable diseases, because I would want my child to have a excellent chance of success in life.
