tools used in biotechnology

1. The term is defined as the basic physical and functional unit of heredity.

• a. alleles

• b. deoxyribonucleic acid

• c. genes

• d. ribonucleic acid

2. It is a branch of science that is concerned how various traits are inherited.

• a. biological engineering

• b. genetics

• c. heredity

• d. pathology

A new organism is made that has the exact same genes as the organism from which it was produced, creating an exact copy of the organism from which it came.

• Cloning

• Gene Splicing

• Stem Cell Therapy

• Transgenic Organisms

The enzymes that make one incision on each of the two strands of DNA atspecific locations based on the nucleotide sequence are known as ______________.

• a. DNA Polymerase I

• b. Primase

• c. Helicase

• d. Restriction Endonuclease

Which process is involved with genetic engineering?

• Humans choosing individuals with desirable traits to parent the next generation

• Using technology to cut DNA and insert genes to get the traits you want.

Adding or deleting segments of genes to correct or get rid of genetic disorders.

• Gene Splicing

• Genetic Screening
