Genetic Engineering Technology

Genetic engineering

Genetic engineering is the deliberate modification of the characteristics of an organism by manipulating its genetic material.

Genetic Engineering

Recombinant DNA technology: technology that combines 2 different species to priduce a new genetic characteristic
Genetically modified organism: technology combines genes of 2 different species to increase commercial quality

The effects of genetic engineering technology in life

Advantages	Disadvantages
Identifies and determines hereditary diseases and consequently treat the disease Produces quality plants and livestock Produces plants and livestock that has high resistance towards diseases compared to the earlier generation Produces more plants that require shorter time to harvest Produces insulin and enzymes from bacteria that can improve human health	The product of genetic changes cause allergy reaction and side effects to the consumer Genetic research produces new species that can cause the original species to become extinct Genetic modification may be used unethically to produce biological weapons Produce organisms that have high resistance to pesticides
