The human genome project discovered many small regions of DNA that vary among individuals called single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Certain SNP patterns change an individual's susceptibility to disease and after response to medical treatments. This knowledge has led to the idea:________

Respuesta :

Answer:

The effect of SNP on individual's susceptibility to disease opens a way for a field of pharmacogenomics, which helps to focus treatment of diseases using the differences in the genomic composition.

Explanation:

Pharmacogenomics is a field which reflects relationship between the genetic make-up with the response to therapeutic intervention. This enable an individual treatment pattern according to the variation in genetic make up.
