(1 Point)
vector
plasmid
recombinant DNA

2Identify ALL the terms that are synonyms for biotechnology.
(3 Points)
genetic engineering

3A researcher chooses a plasmid, bacterial DNA, with a gene that gives resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin. She isolates a human gene that codes for a protein and inserts into the bacteria's DNA. Next, she cultures the new bacteria on a nutrient medium contaning the antibiotic ampicillin.
Which of the following would indicate that the bacteria contain the human gene?
(1 Point)
They produce ampicillin.
They are resistant to ampicillin.
They attack the human protein encoded by the human gene.
They produce the human protein encoded by the human gene.
4A clone is an copy of an organism.
(1 Point)
identical
similar
different
hybrid
5DNA can be cut up into shorter sequences using
(1 Point)
carbohydrates
enzymes
transgenics
gel electrophoresis
6Genetic engineering involves
(1 Point)
reading a DNA sequence.
editing a DNA sequence.
reinserting DNA into living organisms
all of the above
7How was genetic engineering used to develop treatments for diabetes?
(1 Point)
The gene for human insulin was inserted into the genome of diabetes patients.
The gene for human insulin was inserted into cow and pig genomes and taken from their pancreas.
The gene for human insulin was replaced by the gene for cow or pig insulin so that it wouldn’t be damaged.
The gene for human insulin was inserted into E. coli bacteria so that this microbe could produce an identical version of human insulin
8What is Bt corn?
(1 Point)
A type of corn that produces its own insecticide because of an inserted gene for toxin production
A type of corn that is organically produced and cannot be sprayed with insecticides
Any kind of corn that is genetically modified
Corn that is especially vulnerable to the corn pest, Bacillus thuringiensis
9Identify ALL the techniques that were learned about last week.
(2 Points)

Down's Syndrome
colorblindness
hemophilia
11Identify the food that is not commonly genetically modified.
(1 Point)
corn
tomatoes
peaches
soybeans
12The best illustrations to use to truly understand CRISPR are:
(2 Points)
copy and paste
cut and paste
scissors and glue
camera and scissors
13A scientist finds a gene in the DNA of a wild-growing plant that could increase the amount of lycopene, a cancer fighting agent, in grapefruits. The scientist inserts the DNA into the genes of the grapefruit. What has the scientist just performed?
(1 Point)
hybridization
genetic modification
de-extinction
PCR
14A member of a population of genetically identical cells produced from a single cell is a
(1 Point)
plasmid
mutant
clone
hybrid
15Biotechnology has made wonderful advances in the world. However, certain issues need to be remembered. Identify ALL the issues that should be discussed when using biotechnology?
(3 Points)
medical
societal
ethical
physical
16What is the diagram to the right describing?
(1 Point)
CRISPR

17Dolly the famous sheep was cloned in 1997. How did they do it?
(1 Point)
Used a plasmid from a bacteria to insert into the sheep
Used a skin cell and placed the DNA into a cell without a nucleus
Used the DNA sequence of another sheep and used CRISPR to insert it into another sheep
Used PCR to make copies of the sheep DNA and inserted it in another sheep
18Which of the following is the first step in gene therapy?Immersive Reader
(1 Point)
splicing the normal gene to viral DNA
allowing recombinant viruses to infect human cells
using restriction enzymes to cut out the normal gene from DNA
identifying the faulty gene that causes the disease
