Watch the video ""Decoding Genes at Home."" The scientific advancements in this video offer a lot of hope for people who want to know their genetic risks for certain conditions. The genetic tests have some drawbacks as well. What advantages and disadvantages do you see with allowing people to test their DNA at home?

Plato answer

Testing DNA at home offers convenience. It may be a lot quicker than waiting for a doctor’s appointment. However, the person doing the test at home may not have the knowledge to understand the results. Also, this type of genetic research is so new that scientists have not tested the effects of every possible genetic mutation. There are also genetic mutations that they likely haven’t found yet. Someone testing at home could become upset about the results. For example, if a person tests positive for a genetic mutation, there may be little to no research available about the possible effects or treatment for the condition.

Scientists finished decoding the human genome in 2001. This research helped geneticists analyze and isolate sections of DNA for investigation. Without this information and the technology invented during the Human Genome Project, Hugh would not have been able to extract portions of his daughter’s DNA. Also, he wouldn’t have been able to see the genes that did not function properly in his daughter’s DNA.

Explanation:

you didn't give any options but heres what i can tell you: an inference is likely to change based on additional observations. the latter is something that you have seen or sensed using your sensory organs while the former is like a conclusion out from what you have observed.
