unit 3 review up to this point

Scaffold is

• the first step to building a new heart

• the first step to building a new organ using regenerative medicine

• describes all DNA

• genetically modified organisms

Transgenic means

• cancer cells

• applies only to cats

• a chemical process that only takes place in a lab

• genes can be transferred to one organism from another

Stem cell research involves

• are biological cells that can differentiate into other types of cells and can divide to produce more of the same type of stem cells

• the illegal use of cells to create new hair, new bone material, new blood, or new tissues

• is only used in cancer patients

• can not be used in adults
