Take genes from one organism and transfer them to other plants and animals to enhance their growth, reduce pesticides required to grow them,  enhance shelf life, enhance nutrition, etc.]]> 2017-05-23 02:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281124 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281195 Risks:
When ingesting pest resistant crops using traits from Bacillus thuringiensis pregnant women may be in danger as well as their offspring due to the reactions in the stomach

Allergic Reactions - GMO food often adds proteins that the original food isn't used to which can cause new Allergic Reactions to the human body.

Cross pollinating will stay in the species of pollen forever.]]> 2017-05-23 02:22:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281195 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281234 Rewards: 
-  special engineered qualities which are purposely made for specific needed purposes. 
- can help (fairly) naturally with deficiencies (e.g: GMO golden rice is eaten by for people who have a vitamin A deficiency). 
- more economically profitable because of better yield. 
Foods like people can acquire diseases. We can genetically modify food to be immune or resistant to specific diseases.]]> 2017-05-23 02:23:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281234 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281310 How it works:
Take the nucleus of existing animal to be cloned and transfer it to an egg w/nucleus removed.  Transplant clone to surrogate mother for growth and development until ready for birth (gestation).]]> 2017-05-23 02:23:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281310 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281337 Risks:
- No genetic diversity so all will die in case of disease because if the genetic code is the same there will be no members of the population to resist the disease.
- Evolution of species will stop because of no genetic diversity. Therefore, resistance to certain

-To produce medicine that can be used for other animals or humans
- Benefits breeding

Enzymes (from bacteria) working as "gene scissors" recognize a gene in DNA and cut it out, then replace it with an alternate version of the gene.

Originated as an ancient bacterial "immune system" that cut out virus DNA from bacterial chromosomes.]]> 2017-05-23 02:25:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281543 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173281606 Risks: 
Could accidentally unveil mutations
Some genes will disagree with the host and the mutation could still pass on to the offspring.

Instead of making an embryo, the fertilized clone egg is "nudged" into developing into specialized tissues or organ.]]> 2017-05-23 02:29:14 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282076 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282143 Risks:
Some risks correlating with therapeutic cloning include mutations. Cloning is not perfect, and there may be some mishap in the process, possibly creating a negative mutation. 

Some risks related to this newly discovered science is that it can be exploited. Organ kidnapping is already a serious issue in today's society, and if it is found that healthy organs can be cloned from just one person, the occurrence of organ-related kidnappings may increase. 

Another con of therapeutic cloning is that it is expensive. If a treatment like this is only available to a certain class of people, this may mean a rise in inequality.

Young embryos have the potential of getting destroyed through the process of therapeutic cloning. When doing research related to therapeutic cloning young lives have to be taken in order to help benefit the research.]]> 2017-05-23 02:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282143 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282176 Rewards:

Vital Organs - Therapeutic Cloning can help people who are in need of an organ. This can help for people who need a kidney or other organs.]]> 2017-05-23 02:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282176 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282350 How it works: Viruses insert DNA into host cells, tricking host cell into making more viral DNA and later more viruses. Viruses can be "hacked" and given helpful DNA that is inserted into host DNA when viruses is used to "infect" host for medical benefit]]> 2017-05-23 02:31:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282350 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282389 Risks: ]]> 2017-05-23 02:31:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282389 mdobson2 https://padlet.com/mdobson2/m2g1ijdn4u74/wish/173282427 Rewards
-Give someone that is born with a genetic disease or who develops cancer the chance at a normal life. 
-Cure many of the diseases that have effected our society for years
