Biological Predispositions at Strife Genetic engineering‚ or genetic modification‚ is the direct manipulation of human and animal genome using biotechnology in hopes of procreating its masses. What happens: DNA or RNA is prepared and inserted into a host of the organism or a cell that is hybridized into the host. By manipulating its genome‚ scientists (who are so obsessed with “playing god”) are able to produce more desirable or efficient traits in humans and animals. The organism that is newly

The molecule maintains a bent shape due to its tetrahedral arrangement and the negative lone pair of electrons on the oxygen. The electrons from both hydrogen and oxygen are joined covalently but the difference in electronegativity lets the electrons from hydrogen get pulled slightly toward the oxygen
