Answer Posted / suman mohajan
It is true that gene transfers also occur in conventional
plant and animal breeding, but these only take place between
individuals of the same species, or, in some cases, between
closely related species. A rice plant can cross with a
different rice species, but not with a walnut. Genetic
engineering is not bound by these limits. So, for example
the genetically engineered Vitamin A rice contains newly
inserted genes from daffodils, viruses and bacteria. As a
result a new form of life has been created.

what is the role of Beta-lactamase in Gene Cloning ?
A blastomere was removed from an 8-cell human embryo, and its beta-globin gene was amplified by PCR. The beta-globin DNA was treated with an enzyme that cuts on either side of and within the normal allele (producing a small fragment), but not within the sickle cell allele (producing a large fragment). Electrophoresis of the treated DNA from the blastomere demonstrated the presence of both a large and small fragment derived from the beta-globin genes. How should you interpret this test?

how was school like for someone with turner's syndrome?
Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?

How is Genetic Engineering currently used?
Cystic fibrosis (CF) occurs with a frequency of about 1/2500 Caucasian newborns and is inherited as an autosomal recessive. A woman had an older sister die from complications of this disease. CF is not present among relatives of her husband. Both the woman and her husband have normal phenotypes. What is the chance this couple will have a CF child?
