In 1990, the US government and international partners launched the Human Genome Project. The goal of the project was to map the DNA sequence of the entire human genome. The genome is the complete set of genetic Information an organism carries in its
DNA. In 2003, the Human Genome Project was declared a success. The cost of the first completed genome was extremely
expensive. Since then, the price to map a person's genome has decreased quickly. By 2017, a person could pay Just a few
thousand dollars for a map of his or her genes,
Tay-Sachs disease is a recessive genetic condition that damages the brain and causes early death, Miriam had an uncle who died
of the disease at age 2. Miriam is considering having a child. She wants to have her DNA tested for the Tay-Sachs gene,
