I think your question depends on if it's a medical necessity
Genetic engineering is the artificial transplantation of Heriditary material[genes] of an organism. Genetic engineering is one of the most important field of biology.It has produced such varieties of plants and animals which can fulfill the requirements of food for 1 arge population. Genetic engineering is very important in the diagnosing of heriditary diseases e.g=Haemophilia, colour blindness e.t.c
The Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act (GINA) was implemented in May of 2008 to prevent employers from discriminating based on genetic information. Employers are exempt if they hire less than 15 employees. GINA's health coverage non-discrimination protections do not extend to life insurance, disability insurance and long-term care insurance. It cannot apply to acts or omissions that occurred prior to GINA's effective dates.
DNA is the genetic code
for the genetic engenerring to take place it needs genetic code like for a car to drive you need to put gas in it. its simple
genetic modification can be bad because animals and stuff are changed to taste better but im not sure if that is genetic engineering
moving a cell nucleus and its genetic material from one cell to another

Not today.
Because genetic testing is not always accurate and because there are many concerns surrounding insurance and employment discrimination for the individual receiving a genetic test, genetic counseling should always be.

Chin reshaping that is done to improve personal appearance is not usually covered by insurance. Mentoplasty that is performed as a reconstructive procedure after trauma, genetic deformity, or orthognathic surgery may be covered by insurance.
If you are tested for or diagnosed with a genetic disorder and this information becomes a part of your medical record, insurance companies, employers, and other agencies may be able to access this information.
No, insurers are not allowed to discriminate against people who have had genetic testing. The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 specifically prohibits health insurers from using genetic test results to charge people different rates or to refuse to cover them. The law protects people from discrimination by health insurers and employers on the basis of DNA information.
Xenotransplantation is the process of utilizing foreign ("xeno") organs or tissue in transplanting operations involving human patients. Recent developments in transplantation and genetic technology have indicated that animal organs may prove to be compatible as surrogates for their sickly or otherwise disabled counterparts in humans.
A chimera is an organism with cells from two or more genetically distinct individuals. They are important because studying chimeras can provide insights into development, organ transplantation, and disease. They also have the potential to create new therapeutic techniques and advance genetic research.
There are some genetic tests for Alzheimer's Disease, but I do not believe they are offered as part of routine prenatal genetic testing. However, you may be able to order the tests through a specialist when you have an amniocentesis performed for other genetic conditions. The Alzheimer's test is unlikely to be covered by health insurance. For a thorough consultation, speak with a reputable genetic counselor, and your obstetrician.
