What is Genetic Engineering?

the manipulation of an organism’s genes

a change in an organism's genes

a random and abrupt disruption to DNA

the manipulation of an organism's appearance

Why is DNA fingerprinting used?

To determine who is the child's father

determine if a family relationship exist between two people

What is recombinant DNA?

Adding DNA from one organism into the DNA of another

DNA which has been changed over generations by natural selection

DNA that causes genetic disorders

Caffeine is a compound found in the seeds of many different plants, such as coffee beans, cola nuts, and cacao beans (the source of chocolate). The presence of this chemical in all three types of plants suggests that these plants

were exposed to the same type of radiation in the past

were cloned from a caffeine plant

The diagram represents cellular growth that can occur in human skin after prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light. Which statement provides a possible explanation for this growth pattern?

Cancer and uncontrolled mitotic division occurred as a result of gene mutations.

Exposure to light stimulated the development of cells containing ozone.

Manipulation of genes caused the movement of embryonic skin cells.

An immune reaction triggered the formation of excess blood cells.

A towel placed on a lawn for a length of time can cause the grass beneath to lose its green color. the most probable explanation for this is that darkness

affects the expression of certain genes in the grass

causes a mutation in the plants

affects the structure of cell membranes in the grass

causes plants to switch to heterotrophic nutrition

A significant difference between the effects of the genetic information passed on from asexually reproducing parents to their offspring and sexually reproducing parents to their offspring is the

amount of variation between the parents and the offspring

degree of modification of the size of chromosomes

number of chromosomes in the body cells of the offspring

A normal sequence of DNA bases in a single human skin cell is CATGGC. If this sequence replicates in this cell and becomes GATGGC, this alteration will most likely be passed to

every cell that develops from it

A cell begins to produce a new type of protein. This is most likely due to an alternation of the

sequence of bases in a section of a chromosome

chemical makeup of the cytoplasm

shape of the antibodies produced by the nucleus
