ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Genetic engineering has multiple applications in different fields. Genetic engineering is the process by which alterations are made at the genetic level so that the final product is superior in quality and yield.

Explanation:

Following are few of it's applications:

<u>Medical field</u>- Genetic engineering is been used to produce insulin artificially, human growth hormones, anti hemophiliac factors, vaccines and other drugs.

<u>Agricultural industry</u>- It has been used to synthesize  improvised crops which give better yield and are pest resistant. E.g Flavr savr, a species of tomato which is more juicy and larger in size than regular tomatoes.

<u>Environment</u>- With the introduction of herbicide resistant corn, farmers reduced the use of tractors which in turn reduced the amount of greenhouse gases. Also, by imparting disease resistance to plants, a lot of plants are prevented from dying. In addition, the biodiversity of an area can be maintained.

puteri [66]

Answer:

a. 50%

Explanation:

<em>BRCA1 genes is a tumor supressor gene whose harmful mutation can cause hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome in both males and females. The BRCA actually stands for breast cancer.</em>

<em>Mutation in BRCA1 gene is heritable and every progeny of a carrier parent irrespective of the sex has a 50% chance of inheriting the trait from such parent, be it from the mother or the father.</em>

Beneficios y desventajas de la modificación genetica
finlep [7]
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.
