Is hybridization an example of genetic engineering?
Hybridization is crossing two varieties of the same or similar species through pollination or other natural methods to create a new variety. Genetic engineering is the process of artifically inserting a gene from one species into another species to create a new trait, such as inserting a bacteria gene into corn to create resistance to a pesticide. So, though some consider them to be the same, they are not. Hybridization is a completely different process than genetic engineering.
Genetic engineering may enable scientists to?
Genetic engineering may enable scientists to create micro-organisms, animals and plants. These are commonly referred to as clones of the originals.
Does A common use of genetic engineering is to create a super genius?

Biologists change the DNA code of a living organism through what?
This is known as mutagenesis. This can be achieved in a number of ways, in either a controlled or random manner. Random mutagenesis can be achieved through exposure to UV light or free radicals such as hydrogen peroxide, which would create different mutations in each cell. Controlled mutagenesis can be performed to ensure that all organisms (single- or multi-celled) have the same genetic makeup. One method to modify DNA in a controlled manner involves the use of modified viruses.
The main goal of genetic engineering is to create oddities of science?
No - the main goal of genetic engineering - is to eliminate weaknesses in the subject organism. Example 1 - Creating a strain of wheat that is resistant to disease False A+ls - Awesomeness399 :P

Will it ever be possible to speed up the genetic-evolutionary proccess?
When humans breed animals or plants, they are speeding up evolution to create organisms that are more useful to them. Also, genetic engineering could do the same thing (although I am strongly against genetic engineering and it would take me a long time to explain why). The long and the short of it is "Yes."
What is the method of creating new technology?
We create new technology through the use of engineering.
What is genetic engineering.?
Genetic engineering involves manipulation of cellular material to create changes in the structure of living organisms. Altering the DNA of a cell changes the attributes of cells created by later reproduction, ideally in a useful and beneficial way.The process is used to create plant or animal hybrids, to correct genetic flaws in an animal or human, or to utilize biological organisms to produce valuable chemicals (such as insulin). in short words to change individual genes within organismsmodifying an organism's natural characteristics through changes to its genetic material
What is a potential health problem that could arise from genetic engineering?
Sample answer: Engineered traits such as herbicide resistance could transfer to weeds and create "superweeds."
What are the disadvantages of gentic engineering?
One drawback for genetic engineering is the fact that scientist don't know the long term consequences. Another disadvantage is the fact that some scientists could use the technology to create incurable diseases.
How can genes be altered and combined to create genetic variation within a species?
