Listening and Watching

1. Do you know how genetic engineering is performed?

Understand the details of how genetic engineering happens with information from a biochemistry professor in video on genetic engineering.

Listen to the professor again and complete this part of his presentation with a word or word combination

And from that point on, it's a part of the __________. So, every time the cell ________ or is even around it should read passed the DNA and _______ exactly what we wrote. Now, to do it on the _________ ________, it's pretty much the same thing except now they have tanks full of the __________ instead of little bottles of the enzymes, and they have _________ of ____________ growing or whatever cell growing instead of little bits of cells growing. The biggest thing issue comes into ____________ 'cos anytime __________ _________ __________ is what it reads the DNA, it's not going to do just create what you wrote. It's going to create everything else that's written on that ________ of ________, too.
