Vaccines can now be genetically engineered by inserting the genes that encode the pathogen's surface proteins into the what?
the RNA of the defective genes
Vaccines can now be genetically engineered by inserting the genes that encode the pathogen's surface proteins into the?
DNA of harmless bacteria or viruses.
What are the genes of genetically engineered corn?
* roundup ready * Bt
Could apes be genetically engineered to talk In other words manipulate the genes to give them a human-like voicebox?
no
What are the uses of vaccines?
a preparation of direct manipulation of genes of weakened or killed pathogen, such as a bacterium or virus that upon administration stimulates antibody production or cellular immunity against the pathogen but is incapable of causing severe infection.
Are transgenic organisms male and female?
A transgenic organism is an organism that has been genetically engineered. It has genes from more than one organism. Can be both, male or female.
What is organic modifier?
GMOs are plants or animals that have been genetically engineered with DNA from bacteria, viruses or other plants and animals. These experimental combinations of genes do not occur in nature.
What is a transgenic organism.?
An organism with DNA from another organism.
Could genes from extict saber-toothed cat still be found and used to produce another saber-toothed cat?
Possibly, if a frozen body of the exact same cat is found, and it's genes are intact, then they could be cloned or genetically engineered, but the chance of finding the cat with intact genes is really small.
What is bt crop?
BT stands for a bacterium "Bacillus Thuringiensis" and BT crops are genetically engineered crops.A genetically engineered plant is generated in a laboratory by altering its genetic makeup. This is usually done by adding one or more genes to a plant's genome using genetic engineering techniques. Agene of "Bacillus Thuringiensis" is inserted to the genome of BT plant to produce a new plant that is BT plant.
What qualities must a food have to be considered genetically modified?
In a broad sense, a plant is genetically modifiedwhenever changes to the genes in the plant occur. This could occur naturally, through hybridization, or through genetic engineering.To be considered genetically engineered, a food must have been created using genetic engineering: the process of manually changing the genetic makeup of a plant in a lab, often by extracting a gene from one species and inserting it into an related species (such as a bacteria gene being inserted into corn).The terms genetically modified and genetically engineered are often used interchangeably to refer to genetic engineering.
Which statement best describes human insulin that is produced by by genetically engineered bacteria?
Genetically engineered insulin may have fewer side effects than the insulin previously extracted from the pancreases of other animals. This is because genetic engineering inserts human genes such as the gene for insulin production into the DNA of bacteria. As a result, the bacteria that produces human insulin, when used by diabetics, should produce fewer side effects.
