1 Will Designer Babies Ever be the Norm? Should we be able to... Select whether to have a boy or a girl Choose to have a boy because the baby’s bone marrow could be used to save his 2 year old brother Choose to have a gene added that would improve intelligence Select the eye colour of the baby Choose to have a girl because a boy is likely to have haemophilia Choose to have a girl because a boy is likely to be colour blind 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 Friday 6 th February 2015

10 Modern uses of genetic engineering: Manufacturing insulin Crops resistant to disease Finding out where genes are expressed in the body Crops which produce a greater yield

12 Manufacturing Insulin Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

13 1.DNA taken from a human cell 2. Use a restriction enzyme to cut out the gene for insulin from the DNA 3.Use a lysozyme enzyme to cut the Plasmid out of a bacterial cell

14 4.Use the same restriction enzyme to cut a section of DNA from the plasmid 5.Insert the gene for insulin into the plasmid 6.Use a ligase enzyme to join the ends of the DNA

15 7.Put the plasmid with the insulin gene back into a bacterial cell 8.Leave the bacteria to divide Multiple copies of the bacteria which produces insulin

16 9.Insulin is removed and purified 10. Ready for use in humans! The process of cutting out a gene from the DNA of one organism and inserting it into the DNA of another is called gene splicing Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

17 Task Cut and stick the pictures and labels in the right order to show genetic engineering Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

19 Task Match each key word with its definition: c. Used to break open a bacterial cell so plasmid can be removed 4. Lysozyme 2. Plasmid 3. Restriction enzyme b. Circular section of DNA found in bacteria 1. Ligase enzyme a. Used to join sections of DNA together d. Used to cut a section of DNA from a longer strand Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

21 GM Foods Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

22 Your task: Kirklees Council want to use some of BBG’s land to start producing GM crops and livestock Write some advantages and disadvantages of GM crops in the table Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

23 How should you write a formal argument? Formal conectives, you need to sound professional: however, although, therefore Opinion words: I believe, I think, I feel, it is my belief that Are you in favour of the idea or not Reasoning: because, since, due to Consider the opposite argument Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

24 Your task: Kirklees Council want to use some of BBG’s land to start producing GM crops and livestock Write a formal letter to the council explaining your views on the matter and whether the proposal should go ahead or not. Describe the process of genetic engineering (C) Explain why genetic engineering is carried out (B) Evaluate the use of genetic engineering (A)

25 Are GM crops a good thing or a bad thing? Advantages of GM crops Disadvantages of GM crops
