Question
Chapter 22, Problem 3QSDC
Summary Introduction
To review:
The types of traits that can be altered in transgenic plants and animals and the techniques to accomplish these alterations.
Introduction:
The process of genome alteration by transferring genes from one species to another is called genetic engineering. This technique has been used to create many transgenic plants and animals.
