The Human Genome Project was an international biological project that was created to determine the sequence of the human DNA, and locating and mapping the entire genes of the human genome in terms of structure and function. The Human Genome Project allows researchers to discover disease causing genes and possibly prevent or treat them. In 2001, the Human Genome Project researchers discovered a new tumor suppressor gene on human chromosome 7 which is involved in prostate and breast cancer. Also in 2000, researchers in Japan and Germany discovered the genetic code of human chromosome 21 and was identified to be involved with diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Down syndrome and Alzheimer's disease.

Fetal alcohol syndrome is the disorder that occurs in children who are exposed to alcohol during embryonic development due to alcohol consumption by their mothers.
Fetal alcohol syndrome is characterized by stunted growth of child and problems associated with the nervous system. Impaired neurological development makes these children slow learners and affects their motor skills.
Terrance's mother also consumed alcohol during pregnancy and exposed him to alcohol. His alcohol exposure resulted in fetal alcohol syndrome affecting his growth and mental development. Fetal alcohol syndrome also affects the shape and size of facial parts such as lips, eyelids, and head as exhibited by Terrance.
