Answer the following questions. EVALUATE 1. If traditional breeding methods already allow an individual plant or animal to have the desired trait, what makes genetic engineering necessary? 2. If you lived during the era when the mechanism of infection by A. tumefaciens to cause crown gall disease was not discovered yet, what would be the challenges faced by rDNA technology concerning plants? 3. What makes the genetic modification of corn different from that of the mouse (at least for mammals)? 4. What makes the genetic modification of corn and bacterial cells similar to each other? 5. If you are able to successfully incorporate foreign DNA to your host organism, what are your major concerns thereafter?

SequencingIn order to ensure a reliable result, arrange the following procedure with A being the first and F the last. A. Place each onion on the glasses filled with Distilled water, with 50% Substance A and 50% distilled water, with 50% Substance B and 50% distilled water. The base of the onions must be submerged in the solution.         B. Record your data and analyze.         C. Place the set-ups in a well-lighted area for 2-5 days.         D. If the onion is too small for the glass, poke four toothpicks, equally spaced, around the circumference of the mid portion of the onion for support.         E. Choose onion bulbs without shoots. Cut the roots of the onion bulb, making sure that there are no new or old roots present.         F. Count the number of roots and shoots that has grown and measure their length.
