Given below are two statements: Statement (I): The Human genome Project aims at transfering the related technologies to the private sectors, such as industries. Statement (II): The Human genome Project does not consider the legal, ethical and social issues which may arise from project. In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

Options

  1. ABoth Statement (I) and Statement (II) are correct.
  2. BBoth Statement (I) and Statement (II) are incorrect.
  3. CStatement (I) is correct but Statement (II) is incorrect.
  4. DStatement (I) is incorrect but Statement (II) is correct.

Correct answer

C. Statement (I) is correct but Statement (II) is incorrect.

Step-by-step solution

The Human Genome Project (HGP) had several important goals. One of the primary goals was to transfer related technologies to other sectors, such as private industries, to foster innovation and development. Thus, Statement (I) is correct. Another major goal of the HGP was to address the Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues (ELSI) that might arise from the project. A specific ELSI program was established to consider these implications. Thus, Statement (II) is incorrect. Answer: Statement (I) is correct but Statement (II
