1. GENETIC ENGINEERING

2. DEFINE GENETIC ENGINEERING 1 DESCRIBE THE TECHNIQUES IN GENETIC ENGINEERING AS BASED FROM THE SITUATION GIVEN 2 3 APPRECIATE THE ROLE GENETIC ENGINEERING TO HUMAN LIFE OBJECTIVES

3. WHAT IS GENETICS? Genetics, study of heredity in general and of genes in particular. Genetics forms one of the central pillars of biology and overlaps with many other areas, such as agriculture, medicine , and biotechnology .

4. WHERE ARE THE GENES? This information is located inside each cell. NUCLEUS CHROMOSOMES DNA ALPHABET a thread-like structure found in the nucleus of a cell that is made of a single, tightly coiled molecule of DNA and proteins . The molecule that carries the genetic instructions for the development, functions and reproduction of nearly all organism . The letters used to spell out genetic instructions

5. GENETIC ENGINEERING Genetic engineering is the direct manipulation of an organism’s genes using biotechnology. It covers different kinds of technologies used to alter the genomes that includes the insertion of genes from other individual either the same or from different species that aims to produce or improve products.

6. WAYS IN GENETIC ENGINEERING ARTIFICIAL SELECTION- done to indirectly manipulate genes focusing on the physical traits among organism. - Breeders choose which organism to mate and reproduce offspring with desirable traits example: Angus Cow

7. HOW DOES GENETIC ENGINEERING HAPPENED? 2. SELECTIVE BREEDING- is a process when animals with desired characteristic are mated to produce offspring with those desired traits. Hybridization- are when two individuals with unlike characteristic are crossed to produce the best in both organism. Inbreeding- is a technique of breeding organism that are genetically similar to maintain desired traits

8. Cloning is the process of producing individual organisms with identical genomes, either by natural or artificial means. In nature, some organisms produce clones through asexual reproduction; this reproduction of an organism by itself without a mate is known as parthenogenesis.

9. RECOMBINANT DNA TECHNOLOGY Recombinant DNA is made by mixing DNA from two different sources. Restriction enzymes were discovered in 1968 by Swiss microbiologist Werner Arbe

10. This was used to splice, connect (ligate) and remove or add nucleotides to sequences of the DNA. This process is used in recombinant DNA technology to remove and insert genetic sequences from and into other sequences of another organism. Inserting the desired gene into the genome of the host involves the selection of the desired gene for administration into the host followed by a selection of the perfect vector (either plasmid or bacteriophage) with which the gene has to be integrated and a recombinant DNA is formed,. The recombinant DNA has to be introduced to the host, maintained and carried forward to the offspring. Biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies practice these techniques in working with medical and research purposes.

11. HOW DOES GENETIC ENGINEERING HAPPENED? In summary, Genetic engineering is the process of changing DNA in living organism to create something new and involves artificial manipulation, modification, and recombination of DNA or other nucleic acid molecules to modify an organism or population of organism

12. Activity 1: Pros & Cons Watch the video “Genetic Engineering will Change Everything Forever” then write what are the pros and cons of genetic engineering in the future. Pros Cons

13. Activity 1: Pros & Cons Guide Questions: What is the importance of genetic engineering to humans? Do you agree that humans will be the subject for genetic engineering specially cloning? Why?

14. Make a reaction paper by voicing out your perceptions on the following topics about genetic engineering. Discuss whether you agree or not. Your paper must have an in-depth analysis of the statement with clear expression and no grammatical errors.
