In Act 1, Scene 2, Mr. Kraler says, “Miep or I, or both of us, will be up each day to bring you food and news and find out what your needs are." This shows how devoted Miep and Mr. Kraler are to keep the Franks comfortable in the attic, even when the risks are extremely dangerous. "I asked Father what would happen to them if the Nazis found out they were hiding us. Pim said that they would suffer the same fate that we would" (Act 1, Scene 1). The punishment for hiding Jews would be death. Jeannine Burk was a Jew who hid in a woman's house from the ages of three to five. Burk had to stay in the house most of the time, but it would also be dangerous to be in the house. She states, "The Nazis used to love to parade. When they used to parade, everybody on the street had to open their doors to watch. The lady I was staying with had to open her door and watch too. She would hide me in the outhouse. If the Nazis saw a Jew inside the house, both the woman and Burk would undoubtedly be punished. Both Anne and Burke had people who helped them go into hiding. and they both faced the same

Genetic engineering is the process of being able to manually add new DNA to an organism. This is to try and add one or more new traits to an organism, which does not have these certain traits. An example of this being done is how bacteria have been genetically engineered to produce human insulin. Insulin is a hormone, which is produced by the pancreas that allows the body to use sugar from carbohydrates in food that is eaten for energy or to store glucose for future use. Basically insulin helps your body keep your blood sugar levels from becoming too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia). But for people with type 1 or 2 diabetes it can be a challenge to produce insulin, as their beta cells in the pancreas are destroyed/damaged or do not respond well or are resistant to insulin. Therefore these people need to gain their insulin from an external source. For many years it was gained from the pancreas of a cow or a pig. However this was very expensive and difficult, also the insulin could cause allergic reactions. This is where genetic engineering came in. Once the structure of human insulin was found in 1955 cow and pig insulin could be chemically modified to be the same as human insulin. Genetically engineered microbes now make it. They produce human insulin in a pure form, which is less likely to cause allergic reactions.
