2.  Taking an organ from one organism and placing it in another to function Pros -Can save lives -Living individuals can donate organs Cons -Worry of doctors not attempting to revive -Individuals selling their organs -Organs being stolen

3.  Involves inserting healthy genes so that the other cells in tissues/organs can function properly  Could be used to treat cancer (apoptosis)  Currently experimental

4.  Creates a genetically identical organism that is an exact copy of gene, cell, tissues, or organism

5. Pros - Cloning plants creates consistent quality fruits - Cloning organs/tissues could save lives Cons - Cloning of humans raises ethical issues (Parents choosing traits, defining identity) - Clones can have genetic diseases - Unsuccessful practices

6. Transgenic Organism – contain the genes from other species Many transgenic organism including cows, pigs, mice, rats, chickens and fish Can be used to study the effects if disease Pros -produce organs used in human organ transplants -Livestock that may have growth hormone to grow faster and have leaner muscle

7.  Used to solve fertility problems (animals and humans)  Include artificial insemination and in Vitro Fertilization AI – involved collecting sperm from a male and placing it in the reproductive system of a female IVF – sperm and egg are collected and placed in a test tube so fertilization occurs, then implanted into the uterus of a female

8. Ethical Issues  Sperm Donors  Daughter carrying her mothers child pg. 117  Freezing eggs causing damage
