What is biotechnology?
the use of living organisms or other biological systems in the manufacture of drugs or for environmental management
100
What is the meaning of cloning?
is a technique of creating a group of genetically identical cells or DNA molecules from a single ancestor.
100
What are the uses of biotechnology?
medicine, the environment, edibles, clothing, and agriculture.
100
What does cloning mean?
the process of producing a clone.
100
can you clone someone at home?
no, you can not clone someone at home unless you are a mad scientist.
200
What does genetic engineering mean?
is a field of study that mainly deals with the manipulation of genetic material with the aim of achieving specific results in an organism. The main aim of this discipline is to alter and control an organism's genotype and phenotype.
200
What is genetic engineering?
genetic engineering is the transfer of DNA from one cell to another. By doing this organisms can be produced that have useful traits. For example, the human gene for insulin was put into bacteria, resulting in the production of a bacteria that produced insulin as a waste product.
200
What does zoologist mean?
a specialist in the branch of biology dealing with animals
200
what does epidemiologist mean?
a medical scientist who studies the transmission and control of epidemic diseases
200
What is food biotechnology?
refers to application of biotechnology in the food production processes. It involves gene modification in animals, plants and micro-organisms which results in new organisms of desired characteristics
300
What are the Benefits of biotechnology?
biotechnology is capable of allowing far greater quantities of food to be grown in the same area, at lower expense and with a greatly reduced risk of disease and pestilence wiping out the entire crop.
300
its bad because you cant play with gods creations.
do you think cloning is good or bad?
300
Are Foods Developed from Recombinant DNA Safe to Eat?
The National Academy of Science has concluded that these foods pose no new or unique risks.
300
What is agricultural biotechnology?
agricultural biotechnology is an advanced technology that allows plant breeders to make precise genetic changes to impart beneficial traits to the crop plants we rely on for food and fiber.
300
Is biotechnology fundamentally different from other breeding techniques, and does it pose unacceptable risks?
No. Biotechnology is a refinement of breeding techniques that have been used to improve plants for thousands of years.
400
Are crops developed using biotechnology as safe for the environment as crops developed using traditional breeding practices?
Yes. Extensive scientific evaluation worldwide has not found any examples of ecological damage from biotechnology crops.
400
Do foods produced using biotechnology require special labeling?
no they do not.
400
do you think foods developed using biotechnology cause food allergies?
yes there is a possibility.
400
is dolly cloned from a baby or adult sheep.
a adult.
400
did the gaur calf die or is it still alive?
it died two days after it was born.
500
are human and animal cloning okay or not?
they are not okay.
