1. Ch5 Sec3 Advances in Genetics

2. Key Concepts What are three ways of producing organisms with desired traits? What is the goal of the Human Genome Project?

3. Key Terms Selective breeding Inbreeding Hybridization Clone Genetic engineering Gene therapy Genome

4. Ch5 Sec3 Three methods for developing organisms with desirable traits: – Selective Breeding: the process of selecting organisms with desired traits to be parents of the next generation – Inbreeding: involves crossing two individuals that have similar characteristics – Hybridization, breeders cross two genetically different individuals

5. Ch5 Sec3 Cloning is an organism that has exactly the same genes as the organism from which it was produced

6. Ch5 Sec3 Genetic Engineering, genes from one organism are transferred into the DNA of another organism Genetic Engineering in Bacteria Genetic Engineering in other Organisms Gene Therapy, will involve inserting copies of a gene directly into a person’s cells Concerns about Genetic Engineering

7. Ch5 Sec3 Learning about Human Genetics – The Human Genome Project Genome is all the DNA in one cell of an organism The main goal of the Human Genome Project was to identify the DNA sequence of every gene in the human genome – DNA Fingerprinting
