Analysis of the nematode gene ced-9 and the human gene bcl-2 has revealed extensive DNA sequence similarity, as well as functional similarity. They both control programmed cell death. Therefore, the ced-9 gene in C. elegans and the bcl-2 gene in humans are homologs. When scientists transfer a cloned human bcl-2 gene into a C. elegans embryo with a loss-of-function mutation in ced-9, cell death is prevented. What does this tell you about ced-9, bcl-2, and apoptosis in the context of evolution

The human genome project is devoted to mapping the general dna sequence of our species. this could lead to the development of new medicines, as well as the possibility of using gene therapy to treat certain diseases. however, there are some ethical issues surrounding the mapping of individual genomes. one concern is a) that your genes may change over time, making the project useless. b) that insurance companies could discriminate based on genetic make-up. c) that since this has never been done before, we should probably not do it now. d) that sequencing our individual genomes is so expensive, it is a counter-productive strategy.
