    Epigenome controls the genetics of the body by determining how cells differ from one another. The cells in our body all have the same genes‚ but it’s the epigenome that differentiate the cells to become skin cells‚ nose cells‚ liver cells‚ and heart cells. Skin cells are different from nose cells because the certain set of genes are turned off by the epigenome to express what that cell will become. For example in the video the fat mice with yellow coat have the agouti gene. When the mother is given

    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
