What are the steps to Genetically modified organism?
first you have to take the gene of interest (the gene that you want to put into the bacteria) and get it cut with restriction enzymes. then mix it with the plasmids from the bacteria. then you put the mixture, which is now called a recombinant DNA into the bacteria and incubate it so it can grow.
How can scientists use plastids to transfer characteristics from one organism to another?
A plasmid is a circular double stranded DNA usually found in bacteria. Most of them do not have specific functions and altering them does not hamper the bacteria possesing them. A gene of interest can be annealed to this plasmid so as to make the concerned bacteria produce a particular product. Since the bacteria can now produce a new product, the plasmid has been used to alter the characteristics of the organism.
What are small elements of genetic material found in some bacteria called?
Bacteria have chromosomes that are not located within a nucleus (they don't have a nucleus). Chromosomes are normally found associated together in an area of the cell. Bacteria also have small circles of DNA called plasmids, these can sometimes be transferred between cells
Bateria exchange genetic material?
Bacteria exchange genetic material, in the form of plasmids, through conjugation. Conjugation is achieved when a pili from once cell attaches to the cell wall of another cell..
Why do some plasmids have high copy number while others have low copy number?
control of copy number in plasmids
What happens are genetically modified plasmids are inserted into bacteria?
The bacteria will gain access to the gene that was inserted into the plasmid, which could be anything from ampicillin resistance to spore formation.

Is it true in gene therapy scientists take advantage of a bacteria's ability to get inside a host cell?
Not true, as bacteria do not enter host cells. The advantage taken from bacteria is their ability to take on plasmids from other bacteria is a form of bacterial genetic information change. A multiple of plasmids are extracted from bacteria, subjected to a bacterial restriction enzyme that cuts the plasmid is specific places and then genetic material, perhaps mammalian, is inserted into the plasmid and ligased. The bacteria are induced to take up these plasmids. A statistical amount of bacteria do so and then begin expressing the genetic material that was inserted in the plasmid. Insulin was developed this way, as a replacement for animal insulin. The insulin genes were inserted into plasmids and then expressed greatly by the bacteria.
What is moving fragments from one organism and inserting them into another organism?
Changing an organism's DNA is called Genetic Engineering. An example is breaking segments of DNA plasmids from a glowing jellyfish off and fusing them with the DNA of a simple bacteria. The genetically modified bacteria reproduces and creates thousands of other bacteria that also glow under UV light. This colony of glowing bacteria are all now Genetically Engineered (And freaks)...

How do you genetically alter plants?
* use a bacteria called agrobacterium * use pellet guns * use plasmids * use electic shock
Plasmids are unique to?
bacteria
What is the function of the plasmid?
Plasmids are extra circular genetic material that can be passed from bacteria to bacteria, which basically is their function; in bacterial conjugation. But, in biotechnology it is often used in recombination work. Some other organisms gene is inserted into the bacterial plasmid and then the bacteria multiply and transcribe this inserted gene into many useful products.
Plasmids are unique to what?
Plasmids are small segments of genetic material which are passed from one bacteria to another, so plasmids are unique to bacteria, which may also be referred to as prokaryotes.
Can serritia liquefecien have plasmids?
Serratia liquefaciens is a very rare rod shaped non-pathogenic bacteria. Since bacteria have plasmids, this bacteria may as well.
In many bacteria genes that confer resistance to antibiotics are carried on what dissimilation plasmids exons plasmids factors or transposons?
plasmids
What is the source of most plasmids used in genetic engineering?
plasmids are circular chains of DNA found in bacteria. genetic engineers remove the plasmids out of the bacteria and use enzyme to cut them where they want it cut. after they manipulate the plasmid, they reinsert into the bacteria to observe the changes that were made.The bacteria is usually the source of most of the plasmids that are used in genetic engineering.
