part of alchemy was taking certain things and turning them into something else. e.g cooking.
Answer 2:It is always real and will always be.
the main true goals of alchemy were:
1. "perfect" ordinary metals into their purest state: gold
2. "perfect" humans into their purest state: everlasting life and/or eternal youth through the "elixer of life".
3. (some other minor and less popular goals were to create a "universal solvent", a liquid which could dissolve any substance (including the container it was in), and to create homunculi, or artificial humans)
thanks to alchemy, most of these can be preformed now or in the near future.
but if you think about it, without alchemy, we wouldn't have human life. you have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk.
(if you have any other goals of alchemy and/or more detailed explanations of the goals, please add to my answer, but don't delete it. thank you.)

You don't. Alchemy is a false science. Even at the time when they thought there was such a thing as alchemy, they had no clue what genetics was. So they probably didn't know either, and even if alchemy was real and you managed to figure how to engineer a cat from like a piece of lead or something you would probably be hanged as a witch. So there really is no way.
