| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| It is an artificially made DNA strand formed by the combination of two or more gene sequences | RECOMBINANT DNA |
| Combining genetic material from different organisms | RECOMBINANT DNA |
| It deals with the technique of identifying, manipulating and transferring of specific genes | GENETIC ENGINEERING |
| GMOs are created by introducing BLANK to organisms by any means | RECOMBINANT DNA |
| What are the important process of rDNA? | Isolation of DNA Cutting the DNA restriction enzymes Gene Cloning Ligation Transformation and Transfection |
| What is the extraction of DNA of interest from donor organisms? | Isolation of DNA |
| This is also known as molecular scissors | Restriction enzymes |
| These things generate stick ends or blunt ends | Restriction enzymes |
| These are overhanging sequences of DNA after being cut by enzymes | Sticky Ends |
| DNA fragment containing gene of interest inserted into a vector | Gene Cloning |
| What are examples of vectors? | Plasmids, bacteriophages or viral DNA |
| the sticky ends of the fragment and vector are joined together using and enzyme called DNA Ligase | Ligation |
| What is the enzyme using to join together the sticky ends and the vector? | DNA ligase |
| Transformation is? | The rDNA is introduced into the host nitrogencells (bacteria) while transfection (eukaryotic cells) |
| It is the technique used to deliver DNA to animal cell | Electroporation |
| A circular self-replicating DNA found in bacterial cell | Plasmids |
| Acts as vectors for gene transfer | Plasmids |
| What are the major applications of DNA? | Agricultural application, Medicinal Application, Industrial Application |
| What are the Agricultural Applications of DNA? | Development of Hybridization Development of Transgenic Plants Development of root nodules in cereal plants Development of C4 plants |
| What are the Medicinal Applications of DNA? | Antibiotics Insulin Vaccines Enzymes Interferon Gene Therapy |
| What are industrial applications of DNA? | Chemical compounds improvement Improvement of existing Fermentation |
| What does this refer to in the application of DNA? Cross parents with different traits | Development of Hybridization |
| What does this refer to in the application of DNA? Contains foreign genes/developed resistance | Development of Transgenic Plants |
| What does this refer to in the application of DNA? Nitrogen fixation bacteria can now be transferred | Development of root nodules in cereal plants |
| What does this refer to in the application of DNA? Improved Photosynthetic efficiency | Development of C4 Plants |
| Two types of Pollination, what are they? | Self=Pollination and Cross-Pollination |
| What type of pollination is from the same flower? | Self-Pollination |
| What type of Pollination is from different flowers? | Cross-Pollination |
| These are the product of self-pollination | Pure-line selection |
| It is a record that depicts the history of the Earth? | Geological Time Scale |
