A mutated gene is just a gene that doesn't have the correct DNA or alleles.. Depending of the human disorder the gene that is mutated will be different... We use genes throughout our bodies but ALL genes can cause human disorders but there is NO single gene that, when mutated, creates ALL genetic modification...

What is an application of the human genome project that involves the insertion of normal genes int o cells with defective genes in an attemp to correcy genetic disorders?
Gene Therapy
Scientist test for alleles that cause human genetic disorders by?
There are many tests for alleles that cause human genetic disorders. These tests are usually taken by blood or other bodily samples.
The use of genetic engineering to transfer human genes into bacteria?
This results in bacteria expressing human proteins or genes.
What does cloning a human completely involve?
cloning a complete human involves taking genes or cells froma human and letting them do the rest
Why is it difficult to cure a human genetic disorder?
It would require changing a person's genes. We can't do that. Yet. Until we do, the genes that gave you the disease will get passed to your children, and THEIR children, etc.
What is the significance of linked genes?
The sex linked genes cause genetic disorders on the basis of gender. For example color blindness is human is located on the X chromosome and is reflected in males more frequently.

Recombinant DNA is presently used in the biotechnology industry to?
synthesize insulin, interferon and human growth hormone
Can a human be mutated?
no

What doesnt the human genome tell us?
The Human Genome is able to tell us the actual genetic codes for thymine, guanine, adenine, and cytosine. Scientist are now able to control the way diseases are developed. The Human Genome does not tell us why genes mutate to cause disorders or diseases.
Scientist test for alleles that cause human genetic disorders by?
There are many tests for alleles that cause human genetic disorders. These tests are usually taken by blood or other bodily samples.
Splinter is what type of creature?
Depending on the version, he is either a mutated rat, or a mutated human.
Why can human genes be expressed in microbial cells?
cause, we are awesome!! sorry really dont know.
Is anxiety disorders nature or nurture?
Modern genetics indicate that most mental disorders are a combination of nature and nurture. Most human disorders are due to a combination of certain genes (there isn't just one depression gene, nor is there one gene that causes anxiety). It is the interaction of these groups of genes and the environment that causes the disorder to arise. Someone can have all the genes of an anxiety disorder and never experience the symptoms of the anxiety disorder, and someone without the genetic disposition to the disorder can develop it. When it comes to the nature vs nurture question, it's generally a more complicated mixture of them both that cause the disorder or behavior that's questioned.
Does interracial breeding cause genetic disorders?
No. Quite the opposite actually. Interracial breeding is beneficial to the human species as a whole because it eliminates harmful genes on both the mother and father's side in the child. In many genes, the more genetically different the mother is from the father, the healthier the child. In this way, you could argue, technically speaking, that intraracial breeding is akin to incest.
How many genes are there in a human cells?
The human genome contains about 24,000 genes.
