The main goal of the Human Genome Project (HGP) was to:

• Identify the unique parts of each person's DNA.
• Identify genes responsible for human diseases.
• Identify genes responsible for human behavior.
• Determine the entire sequence of human DNA.

What is DNA sequencing?

• The total of genes carried by an individual or cell
• Coding genes in order to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms
• Deciphering the functions of various parts of the human genome
• The process of identifying the order of the bases in DNA
