Genetic manipulation
Even though altering DNA can lead to such horrifying events as genocide or viral diseases, genetic engineering is an important scientific breakthrough because with genetic engineering, we can alter DNA molecules and by altering DNA, we can cure many diseases and solve many of mankind's problems. The first step to understanding genetic engineering, and embracing its possibilities for society, is to obtain a rough knowledge base of its history and method. The basis for altering the evolutionary process is dependent on the understanding of how individuals pass on characteristics to their offspring. Genetics achieved its first foothold on the secrets of nature's evolutionary process when an Austrian monk named Gregor Mendel developed the first "laws of heredity." Genetic Engineering can be beneficial to a lot of people but it can also be used in a negative way.
