Question
Messing with DNA by doing things like putting genes from one organism into another is _____.
- Gene modification
- Gene therapy
- Selective breeding
- Animal husbandry
Hint:
Genetic engineering or genetic modification is the process of directly modifying DNA to change the phenotype, or set of traits, of an organism.
The correct answer is: Gene modification
- The technique of modifying an organism's DNA by genetic engineering, also known as genetic alteration, is known as genome editing.
- This could entail adding an extra copy of a gene, altering one base pair (A-T or C-G), or removing a whole section of DNA.
- It might also entail taking DNA from the genome of another organism and fusing it with the DNA of the individual.
- Scientists employ genetic engineering to improve or change an individual organism's traits.
