Genetic Technology and Engineering

Human genome project

• geneticists have been able to map out where the genes are located on the chromosomes
• taking DNA from one organism and planting it into another organism

Recombinant DNA

• restriction enzymes
• taking DNA from one organism and placing it into another organism

GMO

• Genetically modified organisms
• Gene made oragami

Recombinant DNA can happen in same species or two different species

• True
• F
  False

Gel electrophoresis

• electrical currents are used to separate DNA fragments
• fertilized egg

DNA fingerprinting

• fragments of the child's DNA Does Not have to match with either mother or father 
• fragments of the child's DNA have to match with either mother or father

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

• copies of DNA are made from a sample so you get larger samples (petri dish)
• organism used to move a gene to another organism

Gene Therapy

• When a functioning copy of a gene is palced in a cell that has a non functioning gene to correct a disorder
• copies of DNA are made from a sample 

Gene Therapy involves the use of viruses called vectors

• True
• False

Vector

• cheeck swab
• an organism used to move a gene to another organism
