GENETIC ENGINEERING
2
What does something that has been genetically engineered mean?
3
SELECTIVE BREEDING OBJ: Identify the purpose of selective breeding and explain why breeders try to induce mutations (including techniques)
4
Imaginary Apple Stations Observe Color Shape Size Texture Any other important trait
6
Selective Breeding What is Selective Breeding?
7
Selective Breeding What is Selective Breeding? Method of improving a species by allowing only those individual organism with desired characteristics to produce the next generation Examples: Dogs, Chickens, Agriculture
8
Examples of Selective Breeding
9
Problems with Selective Breeding
10
Hybridization What is Hybridization?
11
Hybridization What is Hybridization? Breeding technique that involves crossing dissimilar individuals to bring together the best traits of both organisms
12
Examples of Hybridization Example: disease resistant plant with a high fruit producer
13
Inbreeding Why? To keep the desired characteristics, breeders use inbreeding How This involves the continued breeding of individuals with similar characteristics (to keep the traits wanted)
14
Inbreeding Why? To keep the desired characteristics, breeders use inbreeding How This involves the continued breeding of individuals with similar characteristics (to keep the traits wanted)
15
Example of Successful Inbreeding Pure Dogs!
16
Problems with Inbreeding Higher chance of bringing together recessive alleles, blindness, joint deformities, etc.
17
Advantages of Genetic Engineering Feeding population Helping correct genetic disorders
18
Disadvantages of Genetic Engineering Crop Failure Health Hazards of GMO’s Ethical Issues
19
Assignment- In pairs Choose something an organism (other than a human) that you want to selectively breed. Send one person to have your item approved Create an advertisement selling your new genetically modified item. Be sure to include: Why did you chose what you did? What do you expect the outcome to be? Include characteristics

24
MANIPULATING DNA OBJ: Explain how scientists manipulate DNA
25
Manipulating DNA Genetic engineering is making changes in the DNA code of an organism Scientists can change DNA knowledge of the structure make-up of the DNA molecules
26
Manipulating DNA DNA is cut into smaller pieces the sequence of bases required is identified numerous copies of the sequence are made
27
Tools of Molecular Biology DNA extraction: cells are opened (lysis) and the DNA is separated from the other parts of the cell (before cell enzymes destroy it)
28
Tools of Molecular Biology Cutting DNA: use restriction enzymes (cut the DNA into smaller pieces) hundreds are known, and each cuts the DNA strand at a different sequence (must match exactly )
29
Tools of Molecular Biology Separating DNA: gel electrophoresis separates the DNA fragments according to the number of base pairs in the fragment

31
Gel Electrophoresis A mixture of DNA fragments are placed into a porous gel at one end
32
Gel Electrophoresis Electric voltage is applied to the gel and the power turned on moved the DNA (negatively charged) move toward the positive end of the gel The smaller the fragment, the farther it will travel through the gel
35
Uses for Gel Electrophoresis Identification for bodies Disputed parentage Convict/acquit accused individuals DNA Fingerprints

37
Using the DNA Sequence Cutting and Pasting: combining DNA from different sources = recombinant DNA Making Copies: Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) involves making multiple copies of a gene cut from the DNA strand DNA polymerase uses base pairing to make multiple copies of the gene from the DNA strand (using each side as a template)
38
Transgenic Organisms Contain genes from other species Genes from one organism are inserted into the cells of another organism, then used to grow new organisms

Ethics and Genetic Engineering app.discoveryeducation.com/player/view/assetGuid /15AFE418-71E2-4DA8-A544-FCE9C2537599 http:// app.discoveryeducation.com/player/view/assetGuid /15AFE418-71E2-4DA8-A544-FCE9C2537599 http:// Stem Cell Research: taking a fertilized cell and harvesting the cells to use for research of organ growth, or cloning (removing the nucleus of an egg cell to fuse it with a cell from another organism) – possible suffering of genetic defects and health problems, bringing back extinct species
43
Ethics and Genetic Engineering Genetically Modified Organisms: choosing genes for organisms; “perfect species/race”
50
DNA Fingerprinting No two individuals have the same DNA Looks at sections of DNA that has no function Can be obtained from blood, sperm, or hair with tissue at the base
