genetic engineering

Question 1

what is genetic engineering

Answer 1

the process by which genetic engineering can be transferred from one cell to another

Question 2

what are the 6 stages if genetic engineering

Answer 2

1- identifying section of the DNA which contains required from source chromosome
2-extract gene with enzyme
3-extract plasmid from bacterial cell
4-insert required gene into bacteria plasmid using a different enzyme
5-instert plasmid into host bacterial cell to produce a genetic modified organism
6-allow organism to reproduce and then extract desired product
