Genes are codes for certain function that are found in DNA. The combination of genes is what makes each individual unique. MCADD is a genetic disorder‚ caused by a mutation or damage to the gene‚ ACADM‚ that codes for the enzyme‚ medium chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase. This results in the enzyme being absent or existing in minimal quantities. An enzyme increases the rate of a chemical reaction. Our body needs many enzymes in order to make the materials needed for our bodies to function and be healthy

increased resistance to herbicides or improved nutritional content.

Genetic engineering‚ on the other hand‚ can create plants with the exact desired trait very rapidly and with great accuracy. For example‚ plant geneticists can isolate a gene responsible for drought tolerance and insert that gene into a different plant. The
