Tools and techniques for DNA manipulation Gene technology is the artificial manipulation of genes Gene technology’s use different techniques: TOOLS: Restriction enzyme Enzyme that are used to cut DNA at specific sequences ‘Like a pair of scissors’ One of the most important tools in genetic engineering They have the ability to cut DNA molecules at precise sequences of 4 to 8 base pairs called recognition sites A lot of bacteria are used to get restriction enzymes Bacteria use restriction

Who Discovered DNA? Heather Kane The discovery of deoxyribonucleic acid‚ more commonly known as DNA‚ has been the foundation for much scientific work. This fundamental discovery was credited to James Watson and Francis Crick. Many people believe that another person‚ Rosalind Franklin‚ also played a large role in the research. How much did she contribute to the discovery? Why is her name left unrecognized? This paper will discuss her part in the search and whether her name should appear next to

the application of DNA has been utilized in many ways. When Deoxyribonucleic Acid‚ or DNA is examined‚ a precise decoding of genetic information is revealed. With the exception of identical twins‚ every person’s genetic code (commonly referred to as a Genetic Fingerprint) is inherited and unique. From Maury advising men everyday on TV “You ARE the Father!” or “You are NOT the Father!” to learning the descendents of former slaves are related to President Thomas Jefferson‚ we have come to rely upon

It is best to acknowledge the fact that while recent breakthroughs have presented us with unforeseen promises‚ they have‚ at the same time‚ given us complex predicaments. The educational film DNA: The Promise and the Price introduces the viewers to four immensely powerful molecular biology techniques that may just as well decide the world’s future.

instances of how our knowledge of DNA has changed life in our day. Give one positive and one negative application of that knowledge and defend your answer. According to Kenneth Saladin‚ deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is “a long threadlike molecule with a uniform diameter of 2mm‚ although its length varies greatly from the smallest to the largest chromosomes.” What does this mean? Basically‚ it is a long string that contains a person’s genetic information. DNA has been studied overtime and it

Investigating the effect of temperature on plant cell membranes The purpose of this activity is: • to practise experimental and investigative skills • to investigate the effect of temperature on cell membrane structures Procedure SAFETY: Always carry scalpels clasped to a tile and with the tip pointing away from you. Beetroot cells contain pigments called betalains that give the tissue its dark purple-red colour. The pigment is contained in the cell vacuole. Investigation
