La manipulación genética representa todas aquellas técnicas que permiten modificar de forma directa los genes en el interior de las células de los organismos vivos. Estas modificaciones pueden ser a través de la inserción, la eliminación o la alteración de uno o más genes específicos. Todas las instrucciones que hacen que un organismo sea lo que es están codificadas en los genes, es decir que estos fragmentos de ADN son los que le indican a cada parte de las células y a cada célula en el cuerpo de un organismo multicelular o unicelular, qué debe hacer, cuándo y cómo. La manipulación genética es uno de los procesos científicos biotecnológicos más empleados hoy en día, ya que incluye todas las herramientas necesarias para modificar las características físicas de prácticamente cualquier ser vivo o, mejor dicho, de todo lo que tenga información genética en su interior (ADN o ARN).

Hoy en día la manipulación genética es uno de los temas más discutidos por la sociedad científica, pues existen herramientas biotecnológicas capaces de manipular de manera fácil y efectiva casi cualquier gen que se desee en un organismo Entre los organismos que se pueden “manipular genéticamente” se incluye al ser humano, y es allí donde surgen la mayoría de los debates, ya que a pesar de que la manipulación genética puede ayudar a curar un gran número de enfermedades hereditarias, también puede utilizarse para crear armas biológicas sumamente peligrosas.

A cat standing near a pond looking at the fish in water. Which of the following statement is correct?
salantis [7]

Answer:

The fish appears nearer to the cat than it really is

Explanation:

The situation above is related to the refraction of light. The cat will think that the fish is closer to him, however, it is actually at a<u> different depth</u> in its<em> actual position</em>. This is because of the refraction of light as it travels in two different mediums: <em>water and air.</em> The eyes and brains are<u> not capable of tracing the light rays' refraction,</u> thus, the cat's image of the fish is on a shallower depth. In reality, the light rays reflecting from the fish are actually being refracted on the water's surface.
