These days, most people agree that the answer to this question is yes Recent studies have shown that genes especially influence our self-control and our sense of purpose Your sense of purpose is your desire to have goals in your life If a person really wants to accomplish something and well in life, he or she has a sense of purpose A person who does not care about goals has no sense of purpose Although scientists agree that our genes influence our personalities, there is another question How much they influence us? Can we control ourselves, or our genes control us? People everywhere are still debating this issue So far, we don’t really have an answer Genes also affect your health If a gene has a problem, it is called a MUTATED gene Some mutated genes can cause diseases That is why if a person has a certain health problem, his or her child is more likely to have that same problem The child also has the mutated gene As scientists and doctors learn more about genes, they are also developing a new kind of medicine: gene therapy Therapy is help for a mental or a physical problem Gene therapy means fixing or replacing mutated genes Scientists are still experimenting on gene therapy It is possible that in the future, gene therapy will help doctors prevent and cure diseases that are caused by mutated genes 36 What does the passage say about genes and personality?
