Genetic
engineering
is the process of moving
from one organism to another.
enzymes
can be used to cut DNA at specific sites, leaving
ends, which can be used to produce
DNA.
The techniques involved in genetic engineering follow four basic
steps.
Exercise:
Recombinant DNA Technology
chain
reaction
(PCR) can be used to amplify small amounts of DNA
in vitro
.
are DNA
copies
made from processed mRNAs which contain only
.
DNA
can be used to determine if two samples of DNA are from the same source.
Genetic engineering has many medical
applications.
Genetic engineering can also be used to produce genetically modified (GM)
plants.
