If you wrote a brief essay discussing the impact of recombinant DNA technology on genetics as we perceive the discipline today,
what applications of recombinant DNA technology should be included? Select the six correct applications.a. plant and animal production b. understanding gene function
c. human modification
d. plant and animal husbandry
e. natural selection
f. forensics
g. drug development
h. medical advances
The technology named Recombinant DNA Technology in the example is a technology which involves the combining process of the DNA segments. This segment then can be inserted into another living cell to replicate in there by itself or it can be added or integrated to a chromosome and then put into the cell for replication. Given this ability to manipulate and replicate these modified DNA molecules, this technology can lead to;
A: can be used to give the plants an advantage over certain diseases or bugs that prevent their growth.
B: can be used to modify/isolate and understand the functions of genes.
C: can be used to swap and modify genes in the human body, giving them different abilities.
F: can be used to match the DNA samples taken from the crime scenes by trying different combinations and possibilities.
G: can be used in pharmaceutical industry, for example, making the bacterias produce insulin hormones by modifying their DNA and using this for the people with diabetes.
H: can be used in gene therapy which is a process where a person's DNA is altered and put back in their body to help them produce certain enzymes/hormones/proteins thus curing specific diseases.
