Is the manipulation of the DNA of cells to change hereditary traits or produce biological products?

Since biological products, such as human insulin or human growth hormone, are hereditary traits, the manipulation of DNA is performed in order to change hereditary traits, which results in a change in the production of biological products. For example, bacteria do not ordinarily produce human insulin or human growth hormone as hereditary traits. However, manipulating their genome so that they carry human insulin genes or human growth hormone genes is done to change their hereditary traits, such as changes in their production of biological products, so that the bacteria now produce human insulin and human growth hormone.

After meiosis the genetic material is Haploid, its chromosome number is 1N; after replication yet before mitosis the genetic material is Quadraploid with its chromosome number 4N - briefly. The full set of genetic material in an organism is called GENOME.
