polymerase and DNA Ligase etc.) work in DNA replication. 2. Assess how the understanding of DNA replication has impacted on society. In order to understand the impact that DNA replication has on society‚ it’s helpful to have an understanding of biotechnology. One definition is: the process used to create a copy/copies of cells‚ organisms or DNA fragments‚ e.g. cloning. Cloning organisms has its advantages. Such as when we clone fruit‚ wheat and meat. During a food shortage it is a fast and cost

October 3‚ 2013 Bio Tech Essay Restriction enzymes are named according to the organism that they are kept in. The way that they create the name is to use the first letter of the genus‚ and after the first two letters of the species. There are only a certain amount of strains‚ sub-strains of a certain species that can produce restriction enzymes. A roman-numeral is always used to show one out of possible several different restriction enzymes created by the same organism or by different
