DNA sequencing

DNA sequencing involves determining the order of nucleotide bases in a DNA molecule. DNA sequencing has become a valuable tool in many areas of science, including forensic medicine and biological research. Sequencing of the human genome was made possible using this technology. Opponents of this new technology say that DNA sequencing is an invasion of someone's privacy and this information can be abused if not properly protected. Do you agree or disagree? Why? How is DNA sequencing performed? In your opinion, can sequencing the DNA be harmful for someone's medical record or will it be helpful? What information provided by DNA sequencing is responsible for your response? Justify your answer with research, examples, and reasoning. Comment on the postings and views of at least two peers with similar research, examples, and reasoning. Cite your research using the APA format.
