Detailed explanation-1: -Recombinant DNA technology is the joining together of DNA molecules from two different species. The recombined DNA molecule is inserted into a host organism to produce new genetic combinations that are of value to science, medicine, agriculture, and industry.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which term describes DNA that has been altered by genes from a different organism, typically from a different species? Explanation: Recombinant DNA are segments of DNA from one organism artifically manipulated or inserted into the DNA of another organism, using a technique known as gene splicing.
Detailed explanation-3: -A transgenic, or genetically modified, organism is one that has been altered through recombinant DNA technology, which involves either the combining of DNA from different genomes or the insertion of foreign DNA into a genome.
Detailed explanation-4: -Using recombinant DNA technology to modify an organism’s DNA to achieve desirable traits is called genetic engineering.
