(A) In germline gene therapy, genetic changes are made to reproductive cells.
(B) In this way, the genome of the recipient is changed, but this change is not passed onto the next generation.
(C) Scientists do not know all the functions of our genes and only know some of the genes involved in genetic diseases.
(D) Understandably, people have fears about this powerful technology and are worried that we may use it in ways to change our humanity.

Somatic肉體、軀體的, 體細胞 gene therapy targets genes in the SOMA神经元胞体, or body, cells. 

38 For example,experimental（尤指科學方面）實驗 trials審判、試驗、惹麻煩的人事物、試用 in treating cystic胞囊的,膀胱 fibrosis纖維化 treat the genes only in the cells of the lungs肺 and, consequently因此；所以, the patient’s children would still be at risk for the disease.
