- Genetics of Neurological/Neuromuscular Disorders The genetic basis: what gene or genes are involved Environmental factors: external factors that make the underlying genetics more difficult to understand or manipulate A description of the scientific methods that are used to address the problem A discussion of social, political, and/or ethical factors that enhance or diminish our ability to deal with the genetic problem.arrow_forwardTen example of Human protein in therapeutic genetic technology that have available in genetic engineering and their treatmentarrow_forwardGenetic Engineering Terms Name: Draw a line to connect each pair of boxes DNA sequencing The use of an organism, or a component of an organism or other biological system, to make a product or process. DNA cloning The sequencing, analysis, and cutting-and-pasting of DNA A technique to make many copies of a specific DNA region in vitro (in a test tube rather than anorganism) Recombinant DNA Polymerase chain reaction A technique used.to separatę DNA fragments according to their size Gel electrophoresis DNA that is assembled out of fragments from multiple sources Biotechnology A molecular biology technique that makes many identical copies of a piece of DNA, such as a gene DNA technology The process of determining the sequence of nucleotides (As, Ts, Cs, and Gs) in a piece of DNA. ww tİ6111749/enetic-engineering-temsarrow_forward
- Deine the term genomics.arrow_forwardDiscuss the Genetically Modified Organism (Benefits and Risks)arrow_forwardDo you think it is ethical (morals: right or wrong), safe, and helpful for scientists to continue with genetic engineering? Write a paragraph explaining two reasons to support and two to disagree with the practice of genetic engineering.arrow_forward
- Define genetic engineering and biotechnology, and summarize theimportant purposes of these fields. Review the use of the termsgenome, chromosome, gene, DNA, and RNAarrow_forwardWhat are the pros and cons of genetic engineering. Give at least 3 each and share your opinions whether you are pro or against genetic engineering, and support these opinions with facts. Be sure that issues of biosafety are included in the discussion.arrow_forwardTo discuss: The value of genome projects.arrow_forward
- Suggest some making decisions and designing genetically modified organisms.arrow_forwardGenomic and cDNA libraries are DNA libraries. True Falsearrow_forwardConduct research online concerning recent advances in gene technology. Discuss two of these recent advances and their implication for the future of humanity. Reflect on the ethics of the said technological breakthrough.arrow_forward
