sides of this debate there are six different ethical positions that are generally recognized. One, all utilization of human embryos for research is wrong (Greely, 2013).

According to Forensic Science, “In April of 1953 Watson and Crick published a model of the DNA helix in a one page letter to Nature. It began with the now famous understatement: ‘We wish to suggest a structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid (D.N.A.). This structure has novel features which are of considerable biological interest’” (Laboratory. 2011). This is the very foundation that DNA was discovered. According to Forensic Magazine, “DNA profiling was originally developed as a method…
