This technology allows specific genes to insert or change in living organisms. The specific organism in which being tested can be also named genetically modified‚ transgenic‚ or genetically engineered. With these tests being done dally for new research or new ideas‚ these techniques were developed in between the 1960s and 1970s and allowed
