Three methods for developing organisms with
desirable traits:
–
Selective Breeding: the process of selecting
organisms with desired traits to be parents of the
next generation
–
Inbreeding: involves crossing two individuals that
have similar characteristics
–
Hybridization, breeders cross two genetically
different individuals

•
Cloning is an organism that has exactly the
same genes as the organism from which it was
produced
Ch5 Sec3
•
Genetic Engineering, genes from one
organism are transferred into the DNA of
another organism
•
Genetic Engineering in Bacteria
•
Genetic Engineering in other Organisms
•
Gene Therapy, will involve inserting copies of
a gene directly into a person’s cells

Learning about Human Genetics
–
The Human Genome Project
•
Genome is all the DNA in one cell of an organism
•
The main goal of the Human Genome Project was to
identify the DNA sequence of every gene in the
human
genome
