• Gene Therapy: Genetic modification
enables the treatment of diseases like
cystic fibrosis by correcting the faulty
genes responsible for the condition.
• Vaccine Development: The production
of vaccines, such as the Hepatitis B
vaccine, is made more efficient through
the use of genetically modified yeast
cells.
•Cures for genetic disorders: It
can correct faulty genes,
providing cures for previously
untreatable genetic conditions.
•Reduced disease outbreaks:
Altering genes to boost immunity
can help prevent disease
outbreaks, improving public
health
Improved drug
development: The
process enhances drug
creation, making them
more effective and safer.
• Personalized medicine:
Treatments can be
tailored to an individual’s
genetic makeup,
increasing precision and
effectiveness.

Mercury
Mercury is the closest planet to the
Sun and the smallest one in the
Solar System—it’s only a bit larger
than the Moon
Venus
Venus has a beautiful name and is
the second planet from the Sun. It’s
hot and has a poisonous atmosphere
Here are three important ideas

Solar System—it’s only a bit larger than the Moon

Venus
Venus has a beautiful name and is the second planet from the Sun. It’s
hot and has a poisonous atmosphere

Mars
Despite being red, Mars is actually a very cold place. Mars is full of
iron oxide dust
Divide the content in four ideas

Mars Venus
Mars is actually a very Venus has extremely high
cold place temperatures

Jupiter Saturn
Jupiter is the biggest Saturn is a gas giant and
planet of them all has several rings
 Reviewing concepts is a good idea

Mars Venus Neptune

Mars is actually a very Venus has extremely high Neptune is very far away
cold place temperatures from the Sun

Mercury Saturn Jupiter

Mercury is the closest Saturn is a gas giant with Jupiter is the biggest

Agriculture
Awesome
words
In Bangladesh, brinjal crops were once devastated
by pests, leading farmers to use chemical pesticides.
Unfortunately, these pesticides adversely affected
the farmers’ health and were also costly. In 2013,
genetic modification provided a solution by
introducing Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) into brinjals.
This naturally occurring bacterium targets insect
pests by destroying their digestive systems, resulting
in their death. Thanks to this innovation, pesticide
use was reduced by 80%.
Scientists are working on genetically modifying
fruits to enhance their antioxidant levels, which can
combat diseases, and enriching rice with additional
vitamins. Research is also underway to engineer
plants that are adaptable to climate changes, making
them resilient to droughts and floods. Genetic
modification aims to protect agriculture by enabling
plants to absorb nitrogen from the atmosphere like
microbes. Since nitrogen is essential for plant
growth, this innovation could reduce soil pollution
and the harmful effects of excessive nitrogenous
fertilizer use, thus mitigating environmental impact.

Identify the type of chromosome

Neptune is very far Jupiter is the biggest

away from the Sun planet of them all

Saturn is one of the Sirius is the brightest

planets with rings star in the night sky
 Exercise 02
Answer true or false as appropriate

Molecular biology deals with the study of the DNA is an antiparallel double helix made up
structure and function of genes of two polynucleotide molecules

True False True False

Any new cell in the organism must contain Histones are proteins that give structural
the same information support to compacted DNA

True False True False

You can give a brief description of the topic you want to
talk about here. For example, if you want to talk about
Mercury, you can say that it’s the smallest planet in the
entire Solar System
