Introduction:
Recombinant DNA technology involves the isolation of genetic materials (DNA) from donor organisms (human, plant, or microorganism) and inserts them into recipient organisms after genetic manipulation. This technology is used to introduce genetically-modified organisms (GMO). The main goals of this technology are to provide (i) elimination of undesirable

- Individual genetic maps in a given species are: genetically similar genetically identical genetically dissimilar not useful in species analysisarrow_forwardWhat is the difference between a proto-oncogene and an oncogene? Group of answer choices 1. These are two categories of genes. Proto-oncogenes are genes that fight cancer, oncogenes are genes that cause cancer. 2. Proto-oncogenes are naturally occurring genes in the human genome, while oncogenes come from viruses that cause cancer. 3. These are alleles of the same gene. Proto-oncogenes are wildtype alleles, and oncogenes are cancer-causing alleles.arrow_forward____________ help to transfer DNA between bacterial cells during the conjugation.arrow_forward
