Genetic engineering allowed genes that were not functioning to be replaced with ones that were
DNA sequencing.
The development of DNA sequencing technology was the key advancement that made the Human Genome Project possible. This technology allowed scientists to read, analyze, and decipher the complete sequence of the human genome, which was a monumental task requiring high-throughput and automated sequencing techniques.

Approximately 45% of the human genome is made up of transposable elements. These sequences have the ability to move around the genome and can have significant impacts on gene regulation and genome evolution.
My father studies genetics. I am getting a major in Genetics.
Approximately 1-2 of the human genome is made up of protein-coding genes.
Approximately 1-2 of the human genome is made up of protein-coding sequences.
There are 3 billion base pairs per cell in a human diploid.
Before the completion of the Human Genome Project, most biologists expected to There are 23 chromosomal pairs in the human genome. There are an estimated 20,000-25,000 genes in the human genome. It is approximately 25000 per cell.
Genes make up about 1-2% of the total human DNA. The remaining DNA includes non-coding regions such as regulatory sequences, introns, and repetitive elements. These non-coding regions play important roles in gene regulation and genome stability.
Cloning of sheep and other mammals; the Human Genome Project; discovery of extrasolar planets; the discovery that the expansion of the Universe is accelerating; discovery of an efficient method to determine whether a large integer is a prime number or not. An Internet search for "scientific discoveries" will probably reveal a few more.
