True or False

1. GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organization. False (Organisms)

2. GMOs are organisms that have had their characteristics changed through the modification of their
DNA. True
3. GMO is a microorganism or other organism whose genetic makeup has been modified in a
laboratory using genetic engineering or transgender technology. False (Transgenic)
4. GMO creates combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and virus genes that do not occur in nature
or through traditional crossbreeding methods. True
5. GMO cannot be used in agriculture, medical and research. False (can)
6. Genetic modifications can be made to both plants and animals. True
7. Agrobacterium also has the ability to transfer DNA between itself and plants. True
8. GMOs are produced through using scientific methods that include recombinant DNA technology
and reproductive cloning. True
9. Geodetic engineering is the modification of an organism's phenotype by manipulating its genetic
material. False (Genetic)
10. In recombinant DNA technology, a nucleus is extracted from a cell of the individual to be cloned
and is inserted into the enucleated cytoplasm of a host egg. False (Reproductive cloning)
11. Reproductive cloning involves the insertion of one or more individual genes from an organism of
one species into the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) of another. False (Recombinant DNA
technology/recombination)
12. GMOs produced through genetic technologies have become a part of our everyday life. True
13. Some genetic engineering uses the principle of recombination. True
14. Reproductive cloning is the process through which a new gene is inserted into a bacterial DNA
"The plasmid". False (Recombination)
15. Genetically engineered bacterium is cultured and many new copies of the bacteria with the new
gene are grown. True
