Gel electrophoresis is a laboratory method used to separate mixtures of DNA, RNA, or proteins according to molecular size. 
-Why do scientists use gel electrophoresis? 
 Scientist might use gel electrophoresis to compare DNA from different sources. 
-Explain the steps scientists use to perform a gel electrophoresis

 The purpose of the Human Genome Project were to provide an accurate sequence of the 3 billion DNA base pairs that make up the human genome and to find all of the estimated 20,000 to 25,000 human genes.

-What is gene therapy? 
 Gene therapy is when normal genes get placed into cells in place of missing or damaged ones in order to correct genetic disorders.

-What is the role of gene therapy in SCIDS & cystic fibrosis? 
 The aim of gene therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease is to efficiently and safely express the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the appropriate pulmonary cell types

Bacterial transformation is the process by which bacterial cells take up naked DNA molecules.

-Give two examples of how transgenic organisms are utilized in the following categories: agriculture, industry, and medicine.
It is used in agriculture for genetically modifying food like the tomato has a longer shelf life because of GMO. Genetically modified foods could contain vaccines to cure a child. 

-Is cloning ethical? What’s your standpoint?
Cloning is not ethical I believe that people should be created one way by sperm and egg. If it happens naturally that is fine but nothing with chemicals.
