There are a few scenarios that a physician may withdraw or withhold aggressive life sustaining treatment. First and most absolute is that when a patient requests that he or she wants the treatment to be withheld or withdrawn. Another scenario is when the healthcare team decides that the patient already is not benefitting (and actually becoming worse) with treatment. This will reflect the bioethical principle of double effect as the physician will decide whether the treatment does more harm than good.

Serga [27]

<em>Answer:</em>

<u>Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)</u>

Explanation:

Note that Polymerases Chain Reaction (PCR) is used to amplify food DNA to test for the presence of genetically modified DNA in food products because usually DNA fragments can be isolated from highly processed goods and are sufficiently intact to be amplified by PCR.

The process used by Genetic engineers is <u>called  gel electrophoresis </u>where only a small number of regulatory sequences (promoter and terminator sequences) are used to control the expression of the inserted genes.
