What is biotechnology?
organisms to perform
The use of ___________
practical tasks for ________.
humans
Yeast, helps us
make bread & wine.
Bacteria, help us
make yogurt & cheese.
What is a genome?
Complete set of an organism’s
_________
genetic material.

Genes which are all found in the
________.
nucleus
What is a Gene?
A gene is a sequence of ____
DNA on a
chromosome
___________ that codes for one
protein
________.
**Remember, not all of the ____
DNA codes for
proteins. The parts that do are called
______,
genes the parts that don’t are called
non-coding regions
___________________.
What is DNA Technology?

manipulate (alter)
scientists actually ___________
genomes of organisms at the
the ________
molecular level.
Why would altering DNA affect
our characteristics/traits?
DNA codes for the _________
proteins that
traits
determine our _______.
What are some examples of DNA
Technology?

DNA Fingerprinting
Recombinant
DNA
GMO
bacteria &
Scientists often use __________
________
viruses in DNA Technology
How do bacteria reproduce?
Asexual Reproduction
Does that lead to variation in
offspring?
No, it leads to clones
Human Genome Project
Scientists studied and mapped the human
_________
genome (determined the entire
____________
nucleotide sequence of DNA).
Steps of the Human Genome
Project:
1)Sequence the DNA (order of the bases).
2)Regions of DNA that code for proteins
(genes) must be distinguished from noncoding regions.
3) The functions of the resulting proteins
must be determined.
4) Develop a map of the human genome.
Why is this so important?
1)Comparing human sequences with
those from other species provide
evolutionary
insight into _____________
relationships.
2)Identifying genes will
diagnosing
aid in ____________,
___________________
treating, & preventing
common ailments.
