Unit 11- Genetics Uses- Test review
Gel Electrophoresis - correct answer-A process that separates DNA fragments and proteins
by their Size, smaller fragments move further
Transgenic - correct answer-An organism that contains the DNA of another organism
Restriction enzyme - correct answer-An enzyme that cuts DNA in a specific place
Human Genome Project - correct answer-A project completed by scientists to find the
location of certain genes on the chromosomes.
Gene Therapy - correct answer-A process that replaces BAD genes with GOOD genes
Genetic engineering - correct answer-____________ _____________ produces organisms
that contain the DNA of another species so that the cells can produce proteins to help others
survive.
Recombinant DNA - correct answer-_______________ _______ produces organisms that
contain the DNA of another species so that the cells can produce proteins to help others
survive
common use of bacterial transformation - correct answer-To insert a human gene into a
bacteria cell
first step of bacterial transformation - correct answer-The plasmid would be engineered to
include a new gene.
Type of scientist to use DNA fingerprinting - correct answer-Forensics scientist
DNA fingerprinting - correct answer-analysis of fragments of DNA as a form of identification
forensic scientist - correct answer-investigates crimes by collecting and analyzing physical
evidence
Genome - correct answer-all of an organism's genetic material or genes
restriction enzymes - correct answer-cut DNA into smaller pieces
