Anyone know the advantages and disadvantages of the human genome project, like a 6 mark question answer?
thanks.

Its not that hard right? You just write the advantages and disadvantages and that's about it, it's only 6 marks so don't be too worried

I thought some of the questions were dodgy. Like the 6 marker on fossils. You couldnt write much about it. What did you guys write?

Wrote about how soft tissue organism decay and don't turn into fossils. Was it a six mark I can't remember proply but I'm sure it wasnt

But like the core exam, they might only make physics hard I'm guessing

Can somebody help me please? I wasn't entirely sure I was writing about the right thing on the last 6 marker so wasn't as confident in what I was saying. Turns out I was writing about the right thing, but because I wasnt sure, I forgot to mention key words and further information. Here is (roundabout) what I put. Could somebody estimate at how many marks I would get for this please?

The nucleus, containing the genetic info, is taken from a cell of the glow in the dark beagle, while an empty egg cell is taken from another beagle. The nucleus and egg cell are put together, then stimulated to allow the cell to divide by mitosis. These cells are then inserted into another beagle (surrogate) in order to give birth to a clone, genetically identical to that of which the nucleus was taken from.
