DNA fragments from different sources are combined to make new molecules called recombinant DNA. They put it in bacterial cells to study via a carrier]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:07 UTC https://padlet.com/allie_mcmath/040919/wish/350014212 allie_mcmath https://padlet.com/allie_mcmath/040919/wish/350014502 Explain why some plasmids contain a gene for resistance to an antibiotic.

So that they can grow them in an antibiotic without having a reaction.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:40 UTC https://padlet.com/allie_mcmath/040919/wish/350014502 allie_mcmath https://padlet.com/allie_mcmath/040919/wish/350014564 Describe how genetic engineering can improve human health. 

We can replace defected genes or organs to cure diseases and keep unborn babies from having genetic disorders.

Selective breeding: you breed them to create a specific gene over time
Genetic engineering: you take the genome for the trait from one organism and put it in another to make an instant change.]]> 2019-04-09 16:20:06 UTC https://padlet.com/allie_mcmath/040919/wish/350014869
