• drought-resistant corn

• Golden rice

• Bt talong

• sweet potatoes

Organisms whose genes are altered to have an improved trait are generally referred to as ____________.

• gene-induced breeds

• genetically modified organisms

• aliens

• pure breeded

Dr. Sinuhin used E. coli bacteria in the production and harvesting of human insulin. How is rDNA technology applied in this case?

• for diagnosis

• for energy application

• for therapeutics

• for transgenic organism creation

In the laboratory, microorganisms can be altered to increase their production of hydrogen. Biohydrogen, biomethanol, bioethanol, and biobutanol are what type of rDNA technology application?

• therapeutic products

• diagnostic applications

• genetically modified products

• energy applications

One promising application of rDNA technology is the possible correction of genetic disorders. The technique involves the modification of a person's gene to treat or cure a disease. This is known as:

• gene playing

• gene therapy

• gene curing

• gene splicing
