1.explain why increasing the amounts of two enzymes changed the life spans of the mice 2. express your opinion about whether people should be engineered to have high levels of two enzyme. should people have option to do this is is they would like? should parents be allowed to have it done in their children? is it ok to do it to stop cancer but not ok to do it to stop again?

Answers:

1. Arf and P53 were being injected by a technique which is engineered genetically and it is for this reason which made the mice to continue living longer.

2. No, i don't think people should be able to be engineered to have high levels of the two enzymes unless it is for curing cancer. I don't think anyone should live forever even though I would like too, I don't think it would be a good idea. If everyone started living forever we would be increasing the amount of produce and resources we use up. There for most of the age-less will die from starvation (over-population).

No early death should be allowed to occur in children not unless it is God's will, therefore genetic engineering is much allowed in children.

It is good to stop cancer but it is not good to do genetic engineering to stop aging because if people they don't die there will be an increased population. In Order to reduce population if people get aged they die.
