I chose this career because this career is involved in criminal justice. In Biomedical class, we learned about and worked with DNA. We also had to summarize our findings after performing a lab which is a required skill in this career.

I chose this career be because I have a better understanding of genetics after learning about it in Unit 3. The projected growth of a Clinical Geneticist is about the same as other occupations. However, due to the aging population, their will be a greater need for diagnosing and studying genetic conditions. I have learned in class about how traits are passed in genes. I have also learned how to predict the probability of trait that will show up in an individual and create a pedigree. In this unit I have also learned how to make and read a Karyotype for genetic abnormalities.
