What determines its gender? In all living things, characteristics are passed on in the chromosomes that offspring inherit from their parents. This means that all human characteristics must be something to do with chromosomes. Where are chromosomes found?  What do chromosomes look like? Chromosomes are long strands of genetic information located in the nuclei of cells. Chromosomes are most visible during cell division when they replicate and look like this…  Homologous chromosomes Most cells of the body contain chromosomes in matching pairs. These pairs are called homologous chromosomes. Where do homologous chromosomes come from? chromosome from chromosome from male female parent parent homologous chromosomes Each pair of homologous chromosomes contains one chromosome that has been inherited from each parent.  How many chromosomes? Most human body cells contain 46 chromosomes. How many pairs of homologous chromosomes is this? 23 pairs of chromosomes You inherit half of your chromosomes from your mother and half of them from your father. Other species have a different number of chromosomes; for example:  fruit fly = 8 chromosomes  maize = 20 chromosomes  cat = 38 chromosomes  chicken = 78 chromosomes What makes organisms different? Organisms differ because they have different genes. humans have human genes gerbils have gerbil genes bananas have (yes, you’ve guessed it) banana genes! What is Genetic Engineering?  It is the direct manipulation of an organism's genes using biotechnology.  It is a set of technologies used to change the genetic makeup of cells, including the transfer of genes within and across species boundaries to produce improved or novel organisms. How does Genetic Engineering work? What is the product in this example? HEPATITIS B VACCINE Genetic Engineering Application of Genetic engineering  What is transgenics? 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. What is transgenics? Foreign DNA, including DNA from humans, can be inserted into animals. This is called transgenics. The protein encoded by the DNA can then be produced in a specific tissue of the transgenic animal at a specific time. This method produces higher levels of antibody, more easily and cheaply, than by using genetically-engineered bacteria or mammalian cells. Transgenic goats? For example, the gene for a human antibody can be introduced into goats. Additional controlling DNA is also introduced, so the human antibody is only produced in the goat’s mammary gland at a certain time. The antibody is then expressed in the goat’s milk, where it can be purified and can used to treat diseases. Which came first? The eggs of this transgenic chicken contain a human antibody that could one day help to treat skin cancer. What advantages does this method of producing antibodies have? Do you think it is right for animals to be genetically engineered to help treat human diseases? GM Crops Pest-resistant crops Plant with extra vitamins  Should GM crops be allowed?

It’s completely random which ones he received. He may have his parents’ best characteristics or their worst. Are there any characteristics you wouldn’t want your children to inherit? Unlucky… Sally has breathing difficulties. Her genes gave her cystic fibrosis. She risks repeated chest infections and lung damage. Molly could be fine, but one of her genes puts her at risk. She has a high chance of getting breast cancer. Some women with the gene choose to have their breasts removed. What is gene therapy? Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis Aborting an embryo can be very distressing, even if it would have been born with a disease. PGD removes this problem. 1. The woman’s eggs are fertilized in a ‘test tube’. 2. The embryos develop and one cell is removed from each to be tested for certain genetic diseases. 3. Up to two healthy embryos are implanted in the mother’s uterus. Designer babies: fact or fiction?  DISAGR AGREE! EE! Saviour siblings GUIDE QUESTIONS: 1. Should savior siblings be allowed? Why or Why not? 2: Is genetic engineering ethical or not? Glossary base – The chemical in DNA that forms the basis of the genetic code. chromosome – A long molecule of tightly coiled DNA found in the nucleus of most cells. DNA – The molecule that contains the genetic code. gene – The part of a chromosome that codes for a protein. gene therapy – Curing a genetic disease by replacing a faulty gene with a ‘healthy’ version. genetic engineering – Altering the characteristics of an organism by changing its genetic code. transgenic – An organism that contains DNA from a different type of organism. What is the sequence of events in making a bacteria produce a human protein? https://www.flippity.net/ ma.php? k=1vm31rJq4Zbki6dZUy1zA 9C43vT0QMiw0kLBIasToZNM www.quizizz.com  What was your favorite activity in class?
