    The document discusses applications of biotechnology. It describes transgenesis as introducing an exogenous gene into an organism so it exhibits a new property transmittable to offspring. It also defines three types of stem cells: totipotent stem cells can form any cell type, pluripotent any body cell type excluding placenta, and multipotent a limited number in a lineage. The document is part of a science and technology course module by Dr. Shivin Chaudhary on biotechnology applications.

    Transgenesis is the process of introducing an exogenous gene — called a transgene — into a living organism so that the organism will
    exhibit a new property and transmit that property to its offspring.

    Totipotent (omnipotent) stem cells can give rise to any of the


    220 cell types found in an embryo as well as extra-embryonic
    cells (placenta)

    Pluripotent stem cells can give rise to all cell types of the body
    (but not the placenta).
    Multipotent stem cells can develop into a limited number of cell
    types in a particular lineage.
