OPTION II:

  • Describe a health problem that you believe has a genetic component at least partially inherited. Would you be interested in having genetic testing to determine whether you carry a genetic mutation for a particular disorder or a genetic predisposition for a disease? Why/why not? What are the advantages and disadvantages of determining your predisposition?
  • Using the resources provided in the prompt and in the unit’s Web resources, explore the current state of research for the health problem you described above. If you did not identify an inherited health condition within your family, then choose a disease that interests you or impacts a friend or other family member. Focus only on one of the following as they relate to the genetics of the disease:
    • Cause
    • Testing/Screening/Prevention
    • Treatments/Therapies/Cures
  • Share what you learn regarding research into the disease and look for similarities between the diseases you and your classmates describe.
