Solution

Creating new organisms through genetic engineering was not listed as a goal of the Human Genome Project. The actual goals included identifying genes, sequencing the genome, storing data, developing analysis tools, transferring technologies to industries, and addressing ethical, legal, and social issues. The HGP was fundamentally a mapping and characterization project, not an organism creation project.
