    Genetic Engineering is a scientific process that has recently come a long way. Within the past four years of the twentieth century we have witnessed the most rapid adoption of a new technology in history. Millions of acres of farmland have been planted with genetically engineered crops since 1996. The crops consist mainly of corn‚ soybeans‚ and cotton. Genetic engineering techniques allow scientists to insert specific genes into plants and/or animals. Also‚ species are very easily crossed using genetic

    Genetic Engineering Although genetic engineering is an entirely new field‚ it has fascinated mankind for many years. Genetic engineering gives the power to change many aspects of nature and could result in a lot of life-saving and preventative treatments. Today‚ scientists have a greater understanding of genetics and its role in living organisms. However‚ if this power is misused‚ the damage could be very great. Therefore‚ although genetic engineering is a field that should be explored‚ it needs

    technological advancements to society and these have also contributed to the current genetic revolution‚ which promises to do for life what computers did for information. This increasing power and accessibility may one day give parents the option of genetically engineering the "designer baby". This may be used to spare the unborn from disease or‚ possibly‚ make them tall‚ intelligent and blessed with any desirable traits. Genetic engineering has given humans the power to alter the very basis of life on earth

    GENETIC ENGINEERING GENETIC ENGINEERING GENERAL STEPS What is Genetic Engineering? Genetic Engineering = inserting a foreign gene of interest into a host to transcribe and translate a particular protein. Ex. Inserting the human insulin gene into bacteria to mass produce it. General Steps Obtain the gene of interest (ex. insulin gene) Insert the gene into the host (ex. bacteria) Allow the host to multiply and express the foreign gene get your desired protein! Get lots of cells that can

    Genetic disorders are a topic in biology that can not be avoided. The fact is that genetic disorders can happen in humans‚ plants or animal. No one and nothing is safe from a genetic disorder. A genetic disorder can appear in the first years off life‚ or can appear much later in life when least expected. A basic principal of biology states that the behavior of chromosomes during the meiosis process can account for genetic inheritance patterns. There are many reasons for genetic disorders. To start

    Aggression Discuss genetic factors involved in aggressive behaviour. The gene MAOA may be associated with aggressive behaviour. It is responsbile for breaking down neurotransmitters such as noradrenaline and dopamine after they have transmitted an impulse from one cell to another. The lower the MAOA gene‚means that the more aggressive the behaviour as dopamine and noradrealine is accumulated in their bodies. There has been emperical support by CASES et al who investigated mice genetically engineered
