- Some geneticists, notably Nobel Prize-winner Dr. Herman J. Muller, have proposed that sperm banks solicit donations of sperm cells from carefully selected men whose lives had shown unusual mental, emotional, or physical gifts. Couples would then be able to select the genetic material of their choice and thereby produce a child endowed with the hereditary characteristics that matched their ideals. Evaluate the morality of this proposal with Kant's ethics.arrow_forwardWhich of the following would not be consistent with the ideathat a disorder has a genetic component?a.

(mutation)arrow_forwardIt is a basic idea of human biology, taught in grade schools everywhere: Identical twins come from the same fertilized egg and share identical genetic profiles. But according to new research, though identical twins share very similar genes, identical they are not. The discovery opens a new understanding of why two people who hail from the same embryo can differ in phenotype (physical characteristics), as biologists refer to a person’s physical manifestation. The new findings appear in the March issue of The American Journal of Human Genetics, in a study conducted by scientists at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and universities in Sweden and the Netherlands. The scientists examined the genes of 10 pairs of monozygotic, or identical, twins, including 9 pairs in which one twin showed signs of dementia or Parkinson’s disease and the other did not. It has long been known that identical twins develop differences that result from the environment. And in recent years, it has also…arrow_forward
