more than one organism.

What is a transgenic organism?


A transgenic organism is an organism that has been genetically engineered. It has
genes from more than one organism.
A transgenic organism is a viable organism whose genome is engineered to contain a certain
amount of foreign DNA Transgenic organism is a modern genetic technology. This
technology is used to modify genomes.
a transgenic organism is an organism that has had its genetic code (DNA) altered by the
inclusion of one or more genes from another species of organism
A transgenic organism is an organism which has been modified with genetic material from
another species. The genetic modification is accomplished by inserting DNA into an embryo
with the assistance of a virus, a plasmid, or a gene gun.
The embryo is allowed to develop, and the mature organism will express the DNA which
modification on to future generations by breeding with other members of the same species.
Genetically altered organisms are used in biological and medical research, production of
pharmaceutical drugs, experimental medicine (e.g. gene therapy), and agriculture (e.g.
golden rice).
Transgenic organism are foreign genes. This is express by foreign code.

What is not a use of transgenic organism?
cloned sheep

What is the process to make a transgenic organism?
Genetically modified or transgenic plants or animals are made by adding genes (DNA) from
one species into a different species, this is often done to encourage certain traits that are
beneficial to humans. e.g. pest resistance in farming crops.

How can transgenic organism be used?
Transgenic organisms could be used to make a new type of protein. For example, give a
bacteria a new gene. The bacteria can then make the protein coded by the Transgenic
organisms could be used to make a new type of protein. For example, give a bacteria a new
gene. The bacteria can then make the protein coded by the new gene. The protein may end
being something such as human insulin or some other protein the bacteria don't normally
produce. Your welcomeHabs 13.

How do scientists make a transgenic organism?


Though it is more complicated than this, scientists basically cut a small section of the DNA
out of one organism and insert it into the seeds of an organism of another, unrelated
species. For example, inserting a fish gene into a tomato, a bacteria gene into corn, etc.

Two applications of transgenic organisms

A transgenic organism has genes from other species inserted into its genome. Two of its
applications are to improve yield in plants and for research purposes in animals.
Is transgenic organism same as GMO? Yes, GMOs are transgenic organisms.

Why does scientist make transgenic organisms?

reasons why scientists produce transgenic organisms. Transgenic organisms are used to produce :
Monoclonal antibodies, growth HORMONES,ERYTHROPOEITIN ,COAGILANT FACTORS.

What is an example of a transgenic organisms?

A transgenic organisms has one or more genes from another organism inserted into its genome.
Transgenic bacteria with the gene for human insulin make human
