Human gene editing (part 3) On the other hand, genetic editing can help stop the transmission of hereditary diseases. Although some scientists have already done tests to detect some genetic diseases and avoid them by in vitro fertilization, the new CRISPR methods offer the potential to make more complex editions. This can be achieved by modifying human ovules, sperm or embryos, elements known as the 'human germ line'. If the genes of an adult were edited, the changes would not transmitted to that person's children. However, if the genes were edited in the germ line, it would affect the ovules and sperm of their future children as well, in that way, genetic changes would be inherited. In this way, family-transmitted diseases, such as Huntington and Tay-Sachs, may disappear from family trees.

Perfect besides that one omission.

This can be achieved by modifying human ova ovules, sperm or embryos, elements known as the 'human germ line'. If the genes of an adult were edited, the changes would not be transmitted to the progeny that person's children. However, if the genes were edited in/along the germ line, it would affect the ova  ovules and sperm of their future children as well, in that way,  resulting in inherited/inheritable genetic changes would be inherited. In this way, inherited family-transmitted diseases, such as Huntington's and Tay-Sachs, may disappear from family trees.

Nice job!

There are other improvements that could be made to the overall structure of sentences and flow of your writing to seem more natural. However, those improvements may technically be outside of the domain of language translation.

Since you seem to have a good grasp of the English language, let me know if you'd like more advanced writing advice!

This is very well written Tania.

I could literally only find one mistake, admittedly I know very little about genetics.

Tania, me pareces que estudias algo bien complicado.
