What was a significant outcome of the Human Genome Project?

• It proved that all diseases are caused by a single gene.

• It confirmed that all DNA codes for proteins.

• It showed that most diseases are influenced by multiple genes.

• It eliminated the need for environmental considerations in disease treatment.

What is one of the roles of non-coding DNA in the genome?

• It serves no purpose and is truly junk.

• It codes for additional proteins.

• It is responsible for cell division.

• It regulates gene expression.

What percentage of the human genome is estimated to code for proteins?

• 50-60%

• 1-2%

• 10-20%

• 98-99%

What is one benefit of being able to sequence a large number of genomes?

• It helps in understanding the diversity of the human gene pool.

• It allows for the creation of identical clones.

• It eliminates the need for medical research.

• It guarantees a cure for all diseases.

What was a major technical achievement of the Human Genome Project?

• It proved that all humans have identical genomes.

• It eliminated the need for DNA in research.

• It developed techniques for modern sequencing technologies.

• It created a universal cure for cancer.
