Presentation Transcript

  1. Engineering Adaptive/Assisitive

  2. Technology Technology refers to the products and processes that are designed to meet our needs.

  3. Engineering The process of creating new technology Identify and Research a need. Develop possible solutions Make a prototype (a test model) Test and evaluate the prototype (Cost-Benefit analysis) Modify and retest.

  4. Sometimes Technology has unintended Consequences Medication Cars Internet List some unintended consequences from these 3 technologies.

  5. Bioengineering Applying the engineering design process to living things. Can you think of a problem a living thing might have that needs to be solved. Remember people, plants and animals are all living things. Write down 3 problems

  6. Adaptive and Assistive Bioengineering Assistive Bioengineering- technology that helps organisms without changing them.

  7. Adaptive and Assistive Bioengineering Adaptive Bioengineering- technology that helps organisms by changing them.

  8. Compare and Contrast the 2 types of bioengineering Adaptive Assistive

  9. Bioengineered Corn Scientists have inserted into corn a gene from the bacterium Bacillus thurigiensis, usually referred to as BT. The gene makes a protein lethal to certain caterpillars that destroy corn plants. This form of insect control has two advantages: It reduces the need for chemical pesticides, and the BT protein, which is present in the plant in very low concentrations, has no effect on humans. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/harvest/
