and Paste: Exploring Genetic Engineering In previous three decades‚ scientists have learned how to combine characteristics with unrelated creatures by moving genes. This is called “genetic engineering.” Genetic Engineering is rashly applied in food production. All humans have genes‚ which carry certain traits structuring a person’s chemical composition. Inheritable characteristics move through generations through DNA. Genetic Engineering is the planned adjustment of genetic material. Any meddling
