Designer Babies - Designer Babies Part 1

Hello, everybody! Today's lesson is about designer babies. If you don't know what that is, I'm about to tell you!


 What is a designer baby? A designer baby is a baby whose genetic makeup has been selected in order to confirm that a specific gene is present. In other words, the parents of the baby choose what genes, or traits, they want their child to possess before the baby is born (e.g. they decide whether the baby will have brown hair or blonde hair). The parents can also completely change the genetics of the baby. This all takes place through a process called In-Vitro Fertilization.

Hope this helped you all! There will be more posts on this topic very soon!
