Genetic Modify Organisms Genetic Engineering Today many scientist use “genetic engineering” a new technology that manipulates the genes of many plants‚ bacteria and animals. This organisms are called genetic modified organism (GMOs) because their genetic material (DNA) has been changed in a way that it doesn’t occur naturally‚ it alters the organism’s genetic material through adding‚ deleting or changing the segments in the DNA. This technology is also referred to as "biotechnology" or "recombinant

Genetic Engineering. Right or Wrong? Genetic engineering has been one of the most controversial ethical issues since 1997; when Dolly the first successfully cloned sheep was announced. Dolly has redefined the meaning of "identical twin"; not only does she look exactly like her mother she also has the same genetic make up. This experiment was not only impossible but unthinkable. Yet‚ Dr. Ian Wilmut revealed Dolly on February 23‚ 1997‚ at seven months old ( Travis 1). On the surface genetic
