Answer the following QUESTIONS: (makuha ang answer samga modules ngaginhatag)

I. MELC 1-Processes Involved in Genetic Engineering

Reflection (page 3)5pts.each – maximum of 4 sentences each
I understand…
Ans.: Genetic Engineering is accomplished in three basic steps. These are (1) The isolation of DNA fragments from a donor
organism; (2) The insertion of an isolated donor DNA fragment into a vector genome and (3) The growth of a recombinant
vector in an appropriate host.

I don’t understand…
Ans.: How the processes in genetic engineering

I need more information about…

Ans.: genetic engineering

II. MELC 2-Applications of Recombinant DNA

Activity 2 (page 3) 5 pts.each – maximum of 5 sentences each
Directions: Answer the following questions comprehensively.
1. Discuss how the application of recombinant DNA influenced our way of living.
Ans.: Recombinant DNA technology has also proven important to the production of vaccines and protein therapies such as
human insulin, interferon and human growth hormone. It is also used to produce clotting factors for treating haemophilia
and in the development of gene therapy. Deficiency of food, Health problems, and Environmental issues. Food and health
are basic human requirements beside a clean and safe environment.

2. Cite some examples of the applications of recombinant DNA in your daily life.
Ans.: Applications in Medicines- Production of Vaccines: Vaccines are now produced by transfer of antigen coding genes to
disease causing bacteria. Such antibodies provide protection against the infection by the same bacteria or virus. These
include vaccines for Polio, malaria, cholera, hepatitis, rabies, smallpox, etc.

3. Without the knowledge of recombinant DNA application, do you think our lives will be different? Why do you say so?
Ans.: YES..Because Recombinant DNA technology is likely to also have profound effects on society, Including better health
through improved disease diagnosis, much better understanding of human gene variation, improved drug and
pharmaceutical production, vastly more sensitive and specific crime scene forensics, and production of genetically modified
organisms that significantly improve yields and nutritional value of crops while decreasing reliance on pesticides and artificial
fertilizers.
 III. MELC 3-History of Life on Earth
Activity Proper. C: Once Upon a Time… (page 7) 15 pts.
Create a timetable of the History of Life on Earth. You may use varying materials and any kinds of arts/craft like collage,
painting, drawing, etc. Present your output. Place on a separate sheet and attach it on this paper.

IV. MELC 4-Mechanisms of Evolutionary Change

Provide your answer in not more than 7 sentences. (page 4-5) 10 pts.
There are 5 mechanisms that produce change in population from generation to generation. Among the 5 forces, which
do you think have caused muchdisruptions in the equilibrium? Why?
Ans.: Mutation, Although mutation is the original source of all genetic variation, mutation rate for most organisms is pretty
low. So the impact of brand-new mutations on allele frequencies from one generation to the next is usually not large.
(However, natural selecting acting on the result of a mutation can be powerful mechanism of evolution).

True or False: Write TRUE if the statement is correct, otherwise write FALSE.
TRUE 11. Genetic engineering is the process of manually transferring genetic information from one organism toanother.
FALSE 12. Biofuels derived from biomass are non-renewable and costly.
TRUE 13. Diversifying selection occurs when extreme phenotypes are more likely to adapt to the environment.
TRUE 14. Natural Selection is just a rearrangement of genes.
FALSE 15. Mutation is usually done by farmers and breeders.
