During your visit to the doctor you learn that your child has a rare disorder. The prognosis is not good. But there are two possibilities for treatment:

1) cloning your child which will give a 100% new start or

2) starting your child on an experimental drug that has significant side effects and has not shown much efficacy for recovery.

Do the research on a rare disorder in children with either of the two possible treatment and cite the source

Once my son has a severe problem in his body where there was bleeding in the nose and immediately he fell unconscious. we rushed to the hospital and doctor started to diagnose and was not able to identify the problem. they started to do all the tests like scanning, blood tests, MRI scanning. Still they were not able to diagnose the problem. Senior and experts from different areas were called to attend the case. one of the physician prognosis that the child was having a severe problem where it is rare case , no medication for the treatment. But the physician gave two options one is cloning and another is drug which is in clinical research which may have lot of side effects and recovery may be in efficacy.

Cloning is the right way to treat a person because there are many experiments done on it and was successful In many cases. Here the DNA can be used from the parents which is not a problem and doctor gave the assurance that it is 100 percent successful.

the second treatment was the experimental drug with many side effects and is not much effective. But risk has to be taken i the new drugs are met successful, because the drug has to be tested on somebody.

7) A rare dominant genetic disorder has an allele frequency of 0.00002. It is estimated to reduce the fitness of affected individuals by 50%. Under mutation-selection balance affecting a dominant, the mutation rate is predicted to be about half the equilibrium allele frequency, or 0.00001. We’ll assume this is the case here. A) What is the frequency of affected individuals? (You could calculate an exact answer, but try getting a simple approximation using the fact that homozygotes for the mutant...
