Genetic engineering
Genetic engineering involves manipulating the structure of genes to create desired characteristics in an organism. It can involve adding genetic material from another species to create a transgenic organism, or removing genetic material to create a knockout organism. Some key events in the history of genetic engineering include the coining of the term in 1941, the discovery of DNA's double helix structure in 1953, and the first genetically engineered plants in 1986. The process involves taking a gene of interest from one cell and inserting it into the DNA of a host cell to create recombinant DNA that can be multiplied. Genetic engineering provides benefits like creating medicines, improving agriculture, and DNA profiling. Examples include using it to create disease-resistant plants, make insulin, and clone Dolly
genetic engineering
Genetic engineering can help address problems like food shortages by developing crops resistant to threats. The Philippines faces a rice shortage due to black bug infestation. A company has developed weevil-resistant corn through genetic engineering that could help if planted there. However, genetic engineering also presents risks that must be considered, like potential health or environmental impacts, before pursuing this solution. Experts would need to evaluate what traits were modified in the corn, the benefits and risks of genetic engineering, and whether the benefits outweigh the risks.
Genetic engineering
Genetic engineering involves directly manipulating and altering genes. It is commonly used in medicine, such as producing insulin and researching gene therapy. Genetic engineering is controversial due to various ethical issues regarding human and animal testing. A variety of scientific fields, including genetics, medicine, biology, and biochemistry, contribute to studying genetic engineering. Many careers utilize this technology, such as microbiologists, researchers, and genetic engineers.
Biology - Chp 13 - Genetic Engineering - PowerPoint
The document provides information on genetic engineering techniques including selective breeding, hybridization, inbreeding, inducing mutations, polyploidy, DNA extraction, restriction enzymes, recombinant DNA, polymerase chain reaction, cell transformation, transgenic organisms, cloning, and applications of genetic engineering such as glowing plants and animals, disease resistance, and producing human proteins.
Topic 14 -_genetic_technology
Genetic engineering techniques allow scientists to modify the DNA of living organisms. Key techniques include selective breeding, hybridization, cloning, and gene splicing. Selective breeding involves mating organisms with desired traits to produce offspring with those traits. Hybridization crosses two organisms with different traits to combine the best traits. Gene splicing cuts DNA from one organism and inserts it into another, transferring traits between unrelated species. These techniques produce genetically modified organisms (GMOs) with recombinant DNA from different sources.
Genetic Engineering Powerpoint
Genetic engineering involves manipulating an organism's genes to create desired traits. Scientists use genetic engineering to study gene functions by removing genes and observing the effects. With genome mapping, scientists can alter genes in other organisms to produce beneficial products for humans, such as more nutritious and pest-resistant crops. However, long term effects of genetically engineered foods on human health are still unknown. Genetic engineering also allows designing human embryos by selecting specific genes and characteristics, but this raises ethical concerns.

Scientists have genetically engineered microorganisms to help clean pollution from soil and water. While genetic engineering provides benefits, there are also risks like unintentionally creating allergenic foods or plants becoming invasive "superweeds". However, regulations aim to minimize these risks and the technology could help nutrition and public health when used carefully.
Cloning & Genetic Engineering
Cloning involves creating an exact genetic copy of an organism, with all of its DNA being identical. Genetic modification involves altering the genes of an organism using biotechnology, usually targeting one or a few specific genes to change a trait. While cloning aims to replicate an organism entirely, genetic modification allows targeted changes to traits through gene addition or replacement. The document discusses how scientists in Jurassic Park cloned dinosaurs using ancient DNA preserved in amber, but had to use frog DNA to fill in missing segments, showing how cloning and genetic modification techniques can be combined.
Genetic Engineering and the future of Evolutiom
Genetic engineering will allow humans to direct their own evolution for the first time in history. By arranging the four bases of DNA - A, T, G, C - genetic instructions can be changed, altering organisms. CRISPR is a new, faster, cheaper, and more precise genetic engineering tool that can edit live cells and has reduced the cost of genetic engineering by 99%. If guided with caution, genetic engineering has the potential to cure diseases like HIV and cancer, extend human lifespans by borrowing genes from immortal species, and enhance humans for space travel by engineering plants and stronger bodies. However, there are also risks like the rise of "designer babies", dictators forcing genetic changes, and the creation of super soldiers

The document summarizes the geology of North Carolina through time. It describes how North Carolina began with the ancient Appalachian mountains forming 480 million years ago during the collision of tectonic plates that built the supercontinent Pangea. Erosion of these mountains contributed sediment that was deposited in inland seas, forming the Coastal Plain regions. Changing sea levels over millions of years shaped the coastline, including the barrier islands along the Outer Banks. The geology of North Carolina was ultimately determined by plate tectonics and weathering processes acting over hundreds of millions of years.
Cell energy 2 cellular respiration
Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce ATP, the "energy currency" of cells. It occurs in three main stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and produces a small amount of ATP. The Krebs cycle and electron transport chain take place in the mitochondria and generate most of the cell's ATP through aerobic respiration. When oxygen is limited, fermentation pathways produce a small amount of ATP without using oxygen.
Ecology 2 notes
1. The document discusses how energy from the sun is transferred through ecosystems via various processes like photosynthesis, chemosynthesis, and cellular respiration. It moves from autotrophs to heterotrophs through food chains and webs.
2. As energy moves up trophic levels from producers to primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers, 90% less energy is available at each level. Marine ecosystems tend to have more microscopic autotrophs while terrestrial ecosystems rely more on plant autotrophs and large herbivores.
3. Key biogeochemical cycles like carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus are outlined as well as how pollutants can biomagnify up food chains. Biodiversity and human impacts
