Ethicist: Robert Gillette has argued that because a thorough knowledge of genetics would enable us to cure the over 3,000 inherited disorders that affect humanity, deciphering the human genetic code will certainly benefit humanity despite its enormous cost. Gillette's argument is not persuasive, however, because he fails to consider that such knowledge might ultimately harm human beings more than it would benefit them.

(A) Gillette's argument wronglyassumes that deciphering the genetic code will lead to cures for genetic disorders. - WRONG. He might be right about deciphering the genetic code and cures but not about the other aspects.
(B) Deciphering the genetic code might ultimately harm human beings more than benefitthem . - WRONG. Already said and its just half conclusion.
(C) Because of its possible negative consequences, genetic research should not beconducted . - WRONG. Conduction
