a.       In brief describe about this application (what is it all about?)

Designer Babies is a advanced reproductive technology, which allows parents and docters to see embryos for genetic disorders and also to pick healthy emnryos. In the future we might have access to the embryo so we can choose characteristics and cosmetics, and then the embryo will be put inside a womens uterus for birth through IVF (InVitro Fertiliation). So the main purpose of Designer Babies is to make customizable children by putting the wanted characteristics into the embryo into the womans uterus.

b.      What are some benefits of this application?
 .
The Benefits of Designer Babies is so there is the option of making a customizable baby through planting wanted characteristics into the embryo and then the rest is IVF (InVitro Fertlization)

c.       What are some future improvements which still need to be done to make this application perfect (limitations)?

Designer babies can be more effective if the customizable features get improved and also if more technology can handle this Designer baby more easier and quicker.

d.      What issues (social, economic, ethical, political or cultural) are currently related to the use of this application worldwide?


The ethical problem with Designer babies is that it is not good to do because it is basically cheating life. The political problem with Designer babies is that it is a expensive procedure. The social problem is that this might affect the baby if he finds out he was customized before he was born.
