Detailed explanation-1: -Genetic engineering (or recombinant DNA technology) allows selected individual gene sequences to be transferred from an organism into another and also between nonrelated species.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic Engineering This may involve changing a single base pair (A-T or C-G), deleting a region of DNA or adding a new segment of DNA. For example, genetic engineering may involve adding a gene from one species to an organism from a different species to produce a desired trait.
Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic engineering is the process through which a gene of interest can be introduced to an existing organism, and this transfer of a gene or isolated DNA from one organism to another is known as gene transfer.
