Resposta

The correct answer is B. False.The statement is false because the Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international effort to decode human DNA, but it did not identify about 99% of the entire human genetic sequence. The HGP successfully mapped and sequenced the entire human genome, which consists of approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA. The project was completed in 2003 and provided a comprehensive reference for the human genome.
