  • Environmental Benefits Reduced pesticide use Lower energy requirements Cleaner water Less soil erosion Reduced pesticide use Lower energy requirements Cleaner water Less soil erosion
  • Slide 12
  • Genetic Engineering and Bioethics How has genetic engineering influenced food and medicine? How is cloning currently used in food and medicine? How is stem cell research being used to benefit humans? What are the bioethics issues surrounding stem cell research and cloning? What is the relationship of evolution to biological resistance?
  • Slide 13
  • Vocabulary Cloning Transgenic animals Stem Cells Bioethics Biological Resistance
  • Slide 14
  • Cloning How is cloning currently used in food and medicine? egg cell A body cell from one organism and an egg cell from another are fused The resulting cell divides like a normal embryo Making an identical copy of an organism
  • Slide 15
  • Transgenic animals made by introducing genes from one species into the genome of another organism. Transgenic animals may be created to exploit the attributes of new genes (for example, genes for faster growth or larger muscles). Agricultural scientists have engineered a number of crop plants with genes for desirable traits.
  • Slide 16
  • Stem Cells Is an unspecialized cell that can reproduce itself indefinitely and differentiate into specialized cells How is stem cell research being used to benefit humans?
  • Slide 17
  • Biological Resistance Genetically based resistance to pests, disease, drought, etc. What is the relationship of evolution to biological resistance?
  • Slide 18
  • 18 Herbicide Resistant Crops Soybeans: Roundup Ready Corn: Roundup Ready, Liberty Link Cotton: BXN, Roundup Ready Canola: Liberty Link, Roundup Ready + CP4 EPSPS = Roundup gene Ready
  • Slide 19
  • Bioethics study of the controversies brought about by advances in biology What are the bioethics issues surrounding stem cell research and cloning? How has genetic engineering influenced food and medicine?
  • Slide 20
  • Chromosomes and Mutations and Biological Resistance How do mutations affect evolution? What are genetic diseases that are caused by mutations? What are the different types of mutations that can occur in organisms? What is the relationship of evolution to biological resistance?
  • Slide 21
  • Vocabulary Single gene mutations Polygenic mutations Chromosomal mutations Mitochondrial DNA mutations nondisjunction insertion substitution deletion chromosomal translocation mutagenic factors (radiation, chemical) biological resistance point mutation frame shift mutation
  • Slide 22
  • Gene Mutations Change in genes caused by change in structure of the DNA DNA bases may be substituted, added, or removed to cause gene mutation When genes are added or removed, the mutation is called a frame shift mutation Adding or Removing a genes is called a point mutation
  • Slide 23
  • point mutation VS. frameshift mutations A point mutation is a simple change in one base of the gene sequence. Original The fat cat ate the wee rat. Point Mutation The fat hat ate the wee rat. In a frame shift mutation, one or more bases are inserted or deleted. Original The fat cat ate the wee rat. Frame Shift The fat caa tet hew eer at
  • Slide 24
  • mutations Single gene and Polygenic A permanent change in DNA Single gene mutation deals with 1 gene and polygenic mutations deal with more than 1 gene
  • Slide 25
  • Chromosomal mutations Mutations in a cells chromosome Mitochondrial DNA mutations Mutations in the chromosome of mitochondrial DNA
  • Slide 26
  • nondisjunction Sister chromatids do not separate properly during meiosis Results in gametes that do not have the correct number of chromosomes Inversion occurs when a piece of a chromosome breaks off & reattaches to the same place but in the reverse order Inversion
  • Slide 27
  • (Mutations) insertion Results in the addition of extra DNA Insertions can cause frameshift mutations, and general result in a nonfunctional protein. Original The fat cat ate the wee rat. Insertion The fat cat xlw ate the wee rat.
  • Slide 28
  • (Mutations) Substitution Mutation results from genes or single nitrogen bases being switched. Duplications occur when a section of a chromosome is doubled (Mutations) Duplication
  • Slide 29
  • (Mutations) deletion Mutations that result from sections of DNA being deleted. Deletions occur when the end of a chromosome breaks off & is lost These can be small, such as the removal of just one "word," or longer deletions that affect a large number of genes on the chromosome. Deletions can also cause frameshift mutations. In this example, the deletion eliminated the word cat. Original The fat cat ate the wee rat. Deletion The fat ate the wee rat.
  • Slide 30
  • chromosomal translocation Translocation occurs when a chromosome segment breaks off & attaches to a different chromosome Parts of a chromosome braking off and reattaching during crossing over in meiosis.
  • Slide 31
  • mutagenic factors chemical or physical agents that change DNA to cause mutations. (radiation, chemical)
