A genetically modified organism (GMO) or genetically engineered organism (GEO) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. These techniques, generally known as recombinant DNA technology, use DNA molecules from different sources, which are combined into one molecule to create a new set of genes. This DNA is then transferred into an organism, giving it modified or novel genes. Transgenic organisms, a subset of GMOs, are organisms which have inserted DNA that originated in a different species
What else can I help you with?
How are transgenic organisms made?
Via laboratory procedures.
Does a transgenic organisms travel a lot or does it have genes from a different type of living thing?
Transgenic organisms are created by incorporating genes from different species into their genetic makeup, allowing them to express traits not naturally found in their own kind. They do not inherently "travel" more than non-transgenic organisms; their mobility depends on the species and environmental factors. The primary purpose of creating transgenic organisms is to enhance certain traits, such as pest resistance in crops or increased yield in livestock.
How are transgenic organisms important and how could they be harmful?
Transgenic organisms are good because they are engineered to have the characteristics of another organism for its benefit. This increases resistance to harm and other factors in such organisms. As for harmful reasons, I cannot think of any.
Is production of human insulin transgenic organism?
Yes, human insulin can be produced through genetically engineered organisms, such as transgenic bacteria or yeast. These organisms are modified to express the human insulin gene, allowing them to produce insulin that is identical to the insulin produced by humans.
What is one benefit and one risk involved in the use of transgenic organisms?
the benifits of involve transgenic organisms that we are found a new crops or new varities of plants...who has benifitted for production of seed.....and the own risk at that may cause a new deseases...
What is the most common protein produced by transgenic organisms?
The most common protein produced by transgenic organisms is insulin.
What of the following is not a use for transgenic organisms?
Using transgenic organisms as food sources is not a common use. Benefits of transgenic organisms include producing pharmaceuticals, understanding gene function, and improving crop resistance to pests and diseases.
How are transgenic organisms made?
Via laboratory procedures.
What is a sentence for transgenic?
taking dna and putting it into another creature is called transgenic.
How do you think decisions about transgenic organisms should be made?
your beautiful.
What products are produced with transgenic organisms?
Transgenic organisms are used to produce a variety of products, including genetically modified crops like corn and soybeans, which are resistant to pests or herbicides. Medicines like insulin and vaccines can also be produced using transgenic organisms, as well as enzymes used in laundry detergents and other industrial processes.
What is an example of transgenic organisms?
A transgenic organisms has one or more genes from another organism inserted into its genome.Transgenic bacteria with the gene for human insulin make human insulin that is used to treat people with Diabetes.
Organisms that contain genes from other organisms are called?
A plant that contains a gene or genes from another organism that has been introduced artificially into the plant's genetic makeup is called a transgenetic plant. It is also called genetic engineering.
How are transgenic organisms important and how could they be harmful?
Transgenic organisms are good because they are engineered to have the characteristics of another organism for its benefit. This increases resistance to harm and other factors in such organisms. As for harmful reasons, I cannot think of any.
Where were the first transgenic organisms created?
The first transgenic organisms were created in laboratories in the United States in the early 1980s. The researchers inserted a bacterial gene into a mouse embryo, marking a significant milestone in genetic engineering.
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.
How do GMOs relate to biology and chemistry?
GMOs are transgenic organisms. A gene is taken from one species and forced into another, which is what creates a transgenic organism.
