In modern usage‚ civil engineering is a broad field of engineering that deals with the planning‚ construction‚ and maintenance of fixed structures‚ or public works‚ as they are related to earth‚ water‚ or civilization and their processes.

another. This is called “genetic engineering.” Genetic engineering also refers to the artificial modification of the genetic code of any living organism. Genetic engineering changes the original physical nature of the organism‚ sometimes in ways that would never occur in nature. Genes from one organism are inserted in another organism‚ most often across natural species boundaries. Some of the effects become known‚ but most do not. There are some examples of genetic engineering that have created chicken

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

place‚ scientists‚ specifically biologists‚ are becoming keener to the field of engineering. Genetic engineering that is. When one thinks of “genetic engineering‚” the first thought is probably a perfect child‚ or paradoxically some inconceivable creature‚ forged under the microscope in a scientific laboratory. Though both of these are genetic engineering‚ many people do not consider other things‚ such as genetic engineering of agriculture and medicine‚ both of which are extremely useful. Through the

Engineering is defined as the science based profession by which the physical forces of nature and the properties of matter are made useful to mankind in the form of structures‚ machines‚ and other products or processes at a reasonable cost of money and time. An engineer is a person trained or skilled in designing and planning the performance of such equipment as machines and structures and in supervising their performance. An Environmental (or sanitary) Engineer is concerned with

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

Genetic engineering‚ also called genetic modification‚ is the direct manipulation of an organism’s genome using biotechnology. New DNA may be inserted in the host genome by first isolating and copying the genetic material of interest using molecular cloning methods to generate a DNA sequence‚ or by synthesizing the DNA‚ and then inserting this construct into the host organism. Genes may be removed‚ or "knocked out"‚ using a nuclease. Gene targeting is a different technique that useshomologous recombination to
