Genetic engineering has many applications, including uses in the medical, agricultural, and environmental industries. Describe o
ne example of a genetic engineering application in each of these industries. Answer the prompt above using a constructed response using your own words. It is best practice to avoid the use of search engines, such as Google, Bing, etc. Use only the information gathered during this course.
Medical uses: The field of genetic engineering is making progress rapidly and it has helped doctor's to fight many challenging diseases. One of the medical use of genetic engineering is the production of insulin by genetic engineering and also the production of vaccines through this technique.
Agricultural uses: The field of biotechnology can change the life of farmers once it is fully known that the genetically engineered crops cannot harm the humans. One of the uses of genetic engineering in agriculture is the production of crops containing increased nutrition. For example,Golden rice which carries vitamin A in it.
Environmental uses: Genetic engineering is used to clean the Earth by producing genetically engineered microorganisms which can not only break down waste but also can degrade plastics.
The probability of the organism producing a gamete with one dominant allele and one recessive allele for these trait is 2 out of 4 which can be further reduced to 1 out of 2.
For a cross between Homozygous and heterozygous individual we will get 2 homozygous and 2 hetrerozygous individual. The heterozygous individual has one homozygous allele and one heterozygous allele
