Scientific Breakthroughs since the discovery of DNA?

[JoshLee]

Hey there! I need some help and I thought I'd come here.

 

What are some of the most notable breakthroughs in science that wouldn't have been possible without the discovery of DNA? Also what breakthroughs might come of it in the future?

It's homework help xD I'm writing a speech on scientific breakthroughs using DNA and in my research I thought it'd be nice to see what you guys would have to add. Any ideas are helpful!
