Genetic Engireeing

Question 1

What is genetic engirenibg

Answer 1

It’s the transfer of genetic information from one cell to another that can be done by scientists

Question 2

What does genetically modified mean

Answer 2

The organism that recurves the dna is called genetically modified usually bacteria or fungal and the ones wich is giving the gene is human cell or orgainsm of human interest.

Question 3

Why is bacteria nd yeast the ones that are genitcally modified

Answer 3

They produce the product in a short fast time

Question 4

What are the steps of genetic engineering there are 6

Answer 4

1) The section of dna that contains the required genes (located in chromosome) is removed by an enzyme called the baddy endonucleus
2)The plasmid is extracted from the bacteria cell by using the same enzyme
3)The human gene is inserted into the plasmid of the bacteria cell using ligas
4)The genitaclly modified plasmid is instretd into the host bacteria cell.
5)the bacteria cell is cultured (multiplied) to produce hormones like insulin.Now the bacteria cells are officially GENETICALLY MODIFIED.
6)if the hormone is for human then the insulin will be separated and purified .

Question 5

Ex of genitcally modified plants and animals

Answer 5

Tomatoes-increase shelf life
Pigs-To match market demand
