Directly manipulating an organism’s genome using biotechnology
Genetic Engineering Directly manipulating an organism’s genome using biotechnology
5
Recombinant DNA DNA that has been created artificially. DNA from two or more sources is incorporated into a single recombinant molecule.
7
Restriction Enzymes Molecule that cuts DNA at a specific place.
9
Plasmid is a small DNA molecule that is physically separate from, and can replicate independently of, chromosomal DNA within a cell.
11
Plasmids Plasmids used in genetic engineering are called vectors.
a vector is a DNA molecule used as a vehicle to artificially carry foreign genetic material into another cell, where it can be replicated and/or expressed.
12
Cloning Clones are organisms that are exact genetic copies
Cloning uses Vectors to carry DNA into another cell
13
Selective Breeding Allowing animals with desired characteristics to produce next generation animals
15
GMOs Genetically Modified Organisms
Animals or plants that have been genetically changed for a specific purpose
17
Pasteurization Process of rapidly heating food to kill any harmful bacteria or viruses
18
Hybrid Animals Brangus Beef
19
Disease Resistant Plants
Plants that have been bred to resist harmful diseases
20
Pros and Cons of genetic engineering?
