Explain genetic editing in no less than 100 words .

Genome editing is a way of making specific changes to the DNA of a cell or organism. An enzyme cuts the DNA at a specific sequence, and when this is repaired by the cell a change or ‘edit’ is made to the sequence. What is genome editing used for?

   Genome editing could be used to edit the genome of any organism.

   It is against the law to use genome editing in human embryos? that will be allowed to develop beyond 14 days.

   Genome editing can be used:

       For research: Genome editing can be used to change the DNA in cells or organisms to understand their biology and how they work.

       To treat disease: Genome editing has been used to modify human blood cells that are then put back into the body to treat conditions including leukaemia? and AIDS?. It could also potentially be used to treat other infections (such as MRSA?) and simple genetic conditions (such as muscular dystrophy? and haemophilia?).

       For biotechnology?: Genome editing has been used in agriculture to genetically modify crops to improve their yields and resistance to disease and drought, as well as to genetically modify cattle that don’t have horns.

Explanation:

I hope this helps

it's     c       this is a cell (b) with a nucleus (c) containing dna (a). the dna is organized into chromosomes (d). a section of the chromosome that codes for a trait is called a gene (e).

the correct answer is b
