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.
Given: The systolic arterial blood pressure observed for 20 dogs is normally distributed with a mean of 152 mm of mercury (Hg) and a standard deviation of 18 mm of Hg.
To find: P(100 < 152)
Method: Calculation of Z-Score followed by the probability or area of the bell curve at X = 100.
Solution:
Mean u = 152, std s = 18
Z score = 
The value of P(100<152) is calculated by looking at the value of Z in the Z score for the standard normal distribution given in the image.
P(Z=-2.89) = 0.0019
The P(Z = -2.89) corresponds to the area in the left tail of the bell curve.
Thus the probability of 100 mm Hg blood pressure is 0.0019.
