PPT-Unit 9 GENETIC ENGINEERING

Genetic Engineering When most people hear of genetic engineering they think of some new technology that is going to create a superhuman race that will be able to perform miracles Genetic Engineering Misinformation. Learning Objectives:. Explain cloning.. Explain genetic engineering.. Analyse the advantages and disadvantages of cloning and genetic engineering.. Cloning. Clone. = an individual produced through asexual reproduction that is genetically identical to the parent. Genetic engineering. involves manipulating genes for practical purposes . Gene cloning. leads to the production of multiple identical copies of a gene-carrying piece of DNA. Recombinant DNA. is formed by joining DNA sequences from two different sources. “.
