Question
Chapter 13, Problem 19RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The dangers of the recombinant DNA technology are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Introduction of DNA into the genome of virus and bacteria is possible. It is known as insert.
Usually, insert is tagged to a plasmid, which is a small circular DNA present in bacteria.
The insert grows and makes multiple copies by the process of cloning.
