    Viruses commonly used as vectors as they have evolved a way of encapsulating and delivering their genes to human cells in a pathogenic manner While using virus as vectors, the disease causing gene in the virus is removed and therapeutic gene inserted. Viruses commonly used: Retroviruses...

    Captive breeding vs selective breeding: -Selective breeding reduces genetic diversity Captive breeding needs to maintain maximum diversity -Selective breeding chooses parents on grounds of phenotype Captive breeding parents should not be chosen for traits since weak organisms may house needed...

    Steps of Bioleaching: 1. Acidified water is pumped into large heaps of waste materials containing iron and copper sulfides, left from conventional mining 2. Thiobacillus ferro-oxidans oxidises iron (II) sulfide to iron (III) sulfate 3. The iron (III) ions oxidise copper sulfide to soluble copper...

    Dangers of gene therapy: -ALLELE may be inserted within another needed gene altering the product of the needed gene -ALLELE may be inserted into tissue other than target with unknown consequences -ALLELE may be inserted into germ line and passed via gamete -Virus may damage tissue
