The new green colored fish got is color from the extracted Green Fluorescent Protein that is taken from one jellyfish species called Aequorea victoria. These fish are beneficial for a lot of things including the economy‚ environment and the entertainment of the people. Some genetically modified organism has contributed to help

Purpose: To find how pH and temperature levels affect the enzyme Background: Enzymes are a type of protein vital to sustaining life‚ it works with vitamins and minerals as a biological catalyst‚ which lowers the activation energy for a reaction to occur. Each individual type of enzyme does a specific job‚ and they do not die‚ they are reused. For example‚ catalase is an enzyme found in almost all living cells that will break down hydrogen peroxide and turn it into water and oxygen. The

Designer Babies The first batch of genetically modified babies were created in 2001. Out of the 30 babies that were born‚ 15 were found to have DNA from three different adults. Although having DNA from more than two sources can occur naturally‚ these 15 babies were created with a method called “cytoplasmic transfer‚” which had been banned by the FDA . The method was initially developed to save female eggs that had been difficult to fertilize and was showing much promise—until tracking the growth
