Changing the DNA of an organism is called?
Changing the DNA of an organism is called genetic engineering. The organism that results is called a genetically engineered organism. The use of this method is so widespread that it has been given its own category - recombinant DNA technology (a branch of molecular biology)
What are some important processes involved in genetic engineering?
Transgenesis, which is the process of replicating DNA from one organism and inserting it into the DNA of another, creating what is called recombinant DNA
Is the intentional changing of DNA or the human controlled transfer on DNA from one organism to another?
It is called genetic engineering. Transgenis organism apper by this technique such as bt cotton resistant to fruit borer insect.

What is the collection of DNA in an organism called?
It is called the genome
What is the host organism that is receiving the recombinant DNA called?
Transgenic organism
What is anything that changes the DNA of an organism?
It is called a mutagen.
What are organisms of fragments of DNA that are genetically identical to the organism or fragments that they produced from called?
Organisms or fragments of DNA that are genetically identical to the organism they were produced from are called clones. This means they have the same genetic information as the original organism.
What is it called when moving DNA from one organism to another?
Transformation
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 mutations occur in an organism?
In the base sequence of the DNA part of the DNA changes which causes a change in the whole DNA which is called a mutation.
What is the bacterium's genetic material called?
The bacterium's genetic material is called DNA, which stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA contains the instructions for building and functioning of the organism.
