Genetic Engineering Review

The site where restriction enzymes cut are a called:

• cut sites

• restriction sites

• recognition sites

• cleave sites

Clones have the exact same:

• Personalities

• Physical appearances

• Intelligence levels

• Genetic material

• She was the first organism ever cloned

• She was the first clone created from an adult animal

• She was the first animal cloned as an embryo

• She was the first animal to be cloned multiple times

How did Dolly compare to sheep that were cloned with the same DNA?

• Dolly lived longer

• Dolly had more genetic material

• Dolly was less healthy

• Dolly had fewer parents

A crop of plants is more likely to survive a deadly virus if the plants:

• Have unique DNA

• Are planted close together

• Receive little sunlight

• Are cloned from the same plant

What is transformation?

• The use of viruses to transform or genetically engineer cells.

• The measure of how well cells are transformed in a new phenotype.

• The insertion of a foreign plasmid into a bacterial cell which results in new acquired traits.

• Genetic engineering or transformation of mammalian cells.

Which of the following is a medical application of genetic engineering?

• Inserting human DNA into bacterial DNA for insulin production

• Manipulating of DNA to produce glowing monkeys

• Engineering crops for greater nutritional content

• Modifying genes to achieve a desirable phenotype

Which of the following means of genetic engineering would have the greatest impact on world hunger?

• Inserting human DNA into bacterial DNA for insulin production

• Manipulating DNA in trees to require less water

• Engineering crops for greater nutritional content

• Modifying genes to achieve a desirable phenotype

This laboratory procedure is known as

• CLONING

• gel electrophoresis

• chromatography

• use of a dichotomous key

In preparation for an electrophoresis procedure, enzymes are added to DNA in order to

• convert the DNA into gel

• cut the DNA into fragments

• change the color of the DNA

• produce longer sections of DNA
