different species of living organisms‚ bacteria‚ or viruses to get desired traits such as resistance to disease or tolerance of pesticides. How do scientists Genetically modify organisms? Genetically modifying organisms works just like an advanced form of cut and paste. During genetic modification‚ DNA is taken from and unrelated plant‚ animal or bacteria and inserted into a different organism to get it to produce the desired traits. The DNA is“cut” from one organism and “pasted” into and unrelated

* The sun has produced energy for billions of years. Solar energy is the sun’s rays (solar radiation) that reach the Earth. This energy can be converted into other forms of energy‚ such as heat and electricity. * In the 1830s‚ the British astronomer John Herschel famously used a solar thermal collector box (a device that absorbs sunlight to collect heat) to cook food during an expedition to Africa. Today‚ people use the sun’s energy for lots of things. solar energy can be used to: * Heat
