i have the same class and i cannot find the answer ANYWHERE.
organisms,such as fruit flies, yeast and mice.
Yes, the United States founded the Human Genome Project in the 1990's.
to identify the 3 billion genes that comprise the human genome
Human Genome.
The Human Genome Project
The Human Genome Project's purpose is to analyze and map the entire human genome -- that is, to determine all the genes that are involved in human biology. They're doing this to correlate genes to the traits they influence so that the genes (or lack thereof) responsible for disease can be identified.
about 5 and a half years
To identify every human gene.<==== nova net answer.
the human genome project helpes many different cancers
To "map" the entire genome of the human. The main goals of the Human Genome Project were to provide a complete and accurate sequence of the 3 billion DNA base pairs that make up the human genome and to find all of the estimated 20,000 to 25,000 human genes. The Project also aimed to sequence the genomes of several other organisms that are important to medical research, such as the mouse and the fruit fly. In addition to sequencing DNA, the Human Genome Project sought to develop new tools to obtain and analyze the data and to make this information widely available. Also, because advances in genetics have consequences for individuals and society, the Human Genome Project committed to exploring the consequences of genomic research through its Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) program.

Started in 1990 and completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project was a collaborative research project to map and, subsequently, comprehend the entirety of human genetics. A complete understanding of human genes will have a major impact on the future of medicine and biotechnology.
James Watson was hired to head the Human Genome project for the NIH. He headed the project from 1988 until 1992.
The Human Genome Project is an international effort to map and sequence all the DNA base pairs of the human genome. It's also an effort to identify the all the genes and the protein/trait that they code for in the human genome. ============================================== The Human Genome Project studies the human chromosomes to determines which genes are involved in what aspects of the human body reproduction, growth, functioning, and health intending to produce a map of the DNA structure, what it does, and how.
