Summary Introduction
To tell:
The reason why the scientists who work with recombinant DNA do not know all the long-term effects of their work.
Introduction:
The recombinant DNA technology involves the isolation of genetic materials (DNA) from donor organisms (human, plant, or microorganism) and the insertion of them into recipient organisms after genetic manipulation. This technology is used to introduce genetically modified organism (GMO). The main goals of this technology are as follows: (i) elimination of undesirable

- Which of the following best describes the process of DNA sequencing? a. DNA is separated on a gel, and the different bands are labeled with fluorescent nucleotides and scanned with a laser. b. A laser is used to fluorescently label the nucleotides present within the DNA, the DNA is run on a gel, and then the DNA is broken into fragments. c. Nucleotides are scanned with a laser and incorporated into the DNA that has been separated on a gel, and then the DNA is amplified with PCR. d. Fragments of DNA are produced in a reaction that labels them with any of four different fluorescent dyes, and the fragments then are run on a gel and scanned with a laser. e. DNA is broken down into its constituent nucleotides, and the nucleotides are then run on a gel and purified with a laser.arrow_forwardIn what fields is DNA technology useful?arrow_forwardWhy are recombinant DNA technology and nucleus transplantation technology still dangerous?arrow_forward
