Gattaca Review

In class we watched the movie "Gattaca" and it was basically about genetic engineering, and how people can be genetically engineered. IN the organization called "Gattaca", Jerome Morrow is being examined and set ready to fly to Titan, the 14th moon of Saturn. Bit there is just one problem, Jerome Morrow isn't the person you think he is. Itactually is a look-alike, Vincent Freeman, which always wanted to become an astronaut but was unable to, because he had a high risk of heart failure. Vincent and the actual Jerome manage to se up the whole plan, fake blood, fingerprints, urine and allw as just a cover up so that the one that really wanted was actually able to.

I think that this movie was really interesting, and educating, because it tells us much about DNA and how gnetics change the world. ALso it sets the technology and innovatins for further development and maybe one day, we can have more than just a movie with genetic engineering





G- guanine, A - adenine, T - thymine, C - cytosine. (the nitric bases of the DNA structure)
