Genetically modified embryos & Genetic research

Paper details:

Scientists are using genetically modified embryonic stem cells to study the role of specific genes in human development and aging and the genetic causes of diseases. Some people are concerned that these techniques could one day be used to “design” babies with certain desirable traits, creating a class of genetically enriched individuals and an inequitable society. Write a paragraph in which you choose a side on this issue and explore and defend you position. 5 marks for each: Organization, ideas, proper terminology, creativity, and answering all aspects of the question
