Question 20 • Introduction to Health Science - EL3601 B

Genetic engineering can be used to:

Answer
A
create a “perfect” baby.
B
produce insulin to treat diabetes.
C
replace a person’s missing limb.
D
locate blood at a crime scene.

Explanation

Genetic engineering can alter an organism’s DNA so it produces a useful substance. For example, bacteria can be given the human gene for insulin and then used to make insulin for treating diabetes. It cannot create a “perfect” baby or replace a missing limb, and locating blood at a crime scene is not genetic engineering.
