We get most of our traits from our parents and grandparents, whether it 's how we look or how we act. We also obtain disease and cancers from our descendent 's, but with the advancement of science, we may be able to make those unwanted genes to go away. In Ateequllah Hayat 's article "Can You Turbo-charge Your Genes to Produce Designer Babies?" (2016), describes epigenetics which is the study of how our genes are able to be altered by external factors and that we have to become more aware of this idea. His claim is backed up by examples of epigenetics ans how its beneficial to society. Hayat 's purpose of the article is to let people in the science community and families know that research of something that is able to change the world is being

The author uses research to help the reader have a better comprehension of epigenetics by having him go through an experiment he did with mice, where two mice groups, one with a healthy diet and one without mate with control fed mice giving birth generation to mice showing that the mice with the unhealthy mice descendants were more likely to become obese. The research done by the author was in order to show the reader that the author is credible by knowing a lot about this topic and being able to show physical example of epigenetics. Allowing them to have a better understand of genetic remodeling. After stating his research, Hayak says "lifestyles and diet of parents can have vital effect on their children and grandchildren... but they also raise the probability that improving your lifestyle could give your genes the best possible chance of being expressed in a healthy way after they are passed on." this lets the reader know that genetic remodeling can happen and creates logos by having the author show his research to the the science community letting them know that he knows what he 's talking about. After Hayak talks about how beneficial genetic remodeling can be, he brings out a counter argument to strengthen his …show more content…
The author uses research using a mice experiment to show how epigenetics can be beneficial when knowing they can be passing down healthier genes. This makes the reader pay attention to the idea by making want to know if there 's other ways to change their genes to prevent bad genes from passing down. The author also uses counterpoints to point out the negative aspects on epigenetics like how the process may be against certain ethics, but this too makes the reader pay attention to the idea by having the reader know that there are bad things about epigenetics that people have to focus more on. We should believe Hayak 's position that we should focus more on epigenetics because genetic remodeling may soon become an option for us humans so you have to focus more on it, if not, you may not know the process of genetic remodeling or what they 'll do to
