|
allowing animals with only desired characterists to produce the next generation; humans use this to pass desired traits onto the next generation of organisms
|
selective breeding
|
|
|
crossing dissimilar individuals to bring together the best of both organisms
|
hybridization
|
|
|
the continued breeding of individuals with similar characteristics
|
inbreeding
|
|
|
cells that have double or triple the normal amoun of chromosomes
|
polyploid
|
|
|
making changes in the DNA code of a living organism
|
genetic engineering
|
|
|
what is used to cut DNA into fragments at a specific sequence of nucleotides
|
restriction enzyme
|
|
|
when a mixture of DNA fragments is placed at one end of a porous gel, and an electric voltage is applied to the gel. When the power is turned on DNA molecules which are negatively charged move toward the position end of the gel. This is used to compare the genomes of different organisms or different individuals.
|
gel electrophoresis
|
|
|
DNA produced my combining DNA from different sources,
|
recombinant DNA
|
|
|
copying a particular gene
|
polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
|
|
|
a small curcular DNA molecule, they have two essential features: it has a DNA sequence that serves as a bacterial orgin of replication, and it has a genetic marker
|
plasmid
|
|
|
a gene that makes it possible to distinguish bacteria carry plasmid from those that don't
|
genetic marker
|
|
|
contains genes from other organisms
|
transgenic
|
|
|
a member of a population of genetically identical cells produced from a single cell
|
clone
