Answer:
An insertion mutation occurs when an extra nucleotide is added to the DNA strand during replication. This can happen when the replicating strand "slips," or wrinkles, which allows the extra nucleotide to be incorporated.

xenn [34]

Answer:

The correct option is <em>A) Carry out DNA cloning of the desired sequence into a plasmid vector and then put that into bacteria and wait for the bacteria to copy the gene every time the cells divide.</em>

Explanation:

The DNA can be easily cloned by the help of vectors like plasmids. Plasmids can be described as an extra-chromosomal ring which is present in bacteria. The plasmid has many multiple cloning sites where the desired DNA can be incorporated. the plasmid with the foreign DNA is then incorporated back into a bacterial cell. As bacterial cells like E.coli divide in a short period of time, many copied of our DNA could be obtained whenever the bacterial cell replicates.

ahrayia [7]

Answer: False

Explanation:

The genetically modified organisms are the organisms in which the genetic make up of the organism is altered. So that these organisms produce better yield and so as to improve their quality. The aim of genetic engineering in organisms is to develop or introduce a new trait in the organisms, which does not occur in the natural species. Thus the given statement is false as genetically modified organisms are reproducible.
