  1. Mouths are quiet. Begin the quickreviewsection of your notes. Raise your handif you need something.

  2. Quick Review 1. How would a Deer be classified based on what it eats? Consumer and herbivore 2. How would a Deer Mouse be classified based on what it eats? Consumer and omnivore 3. In which trophic level(s) is/are a Blue Jay? Tertiary consumer

  3. Quick Review 4. In which trophic level(s) is/are a Deer Mouse? Primary and secondary consumers 5. If this food web was turned into an energy pyramid, which organisms would be at the top? Blue Jay or Deer Tick

  9. Ecosystems and Adaptations Lesson 6.12 – Biotechnology

  10. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) 1. The changingof livingthings by humans to make useful products= biotechnology 2. The intentionalmatingof certain organisms to produce offspring with specific traits = selectivebreeding a. Many foodproductswe have today (corn, wheat, etc.) are the result of selective breeding over thousandsof years.

  11. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) b. This process is called massselection. Organisms with desired traits are bred. Offspring withthe desired traits are then bredand those withoutare notbred. This is repeatedover many generationsuntil alloffspring have the desired traits. This process is very slow.

  12. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) 3. Changing the genes of an organism to give new traits = geneticengineering a. Genesplicingis a common form of genetic engineering. The genefrom one organismfor a desired trait is put inthe DNA of anotherorganism.

  13. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) b. Often times, the DNA froma complexorganism, like a human, is transferred toa moresimpleone like bacteria.

  14. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) c. The DNA of a bacterium is circularand called a plasmid. Scientists will cut the plasmid and inserta new gene. Each time the bacterium reproduces, its offspring will have the new gene and will produce the desired trait.

  15. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) d. In order to genetically engineer organisms, scientists need to know lots of information about their DNA. It is now possible to determine every nucleotidein an organism’s DNA, this is called its genome. They must also determine all of the organism’s genes and what traitsthese genes control.

  16. Guided Practice WORK WITH US…NOT AHEAD OF US!

  17. I can define and recognize examples of selective breeding and genetic engineering. (3f) • 1. Dr. Jay Keasling is changing the genes of bacteria to produces what two products? • Artemisininand diesel fuel • 2. What process is Dr. Keasling using to change these bacteria? • Geneticengineering • 3. Dr. Karen Nelson is working to determine the sequence of nucleotides in many different organisms. What is Dr. Nelson creating? • Genomes • 4. Dr. Robert Fraley is using genetic engineering to make plants resistant to • droughts.

  18. I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T PRACTICE Do you know what that means?

  19. Exit Ticket (5 Questions)

  20. 1. Which of these is an example of genetic engineering? Use of herbicides Cross breeding Heart surgery Gene splicing

  21. 2. Which of these is an example of biotechnology? A chicken coop A potato that resists frost A microscope A laboratory

  22. 3. A genome is a pattern of bands formed by DNA fragments. a gene inserted into bacterial chromosomes. the complete set of genes in an organism. part of a chromosome.

  23. 4. Which best describes how selective breeding by mass selection changes the traits of organism? Small differences in traits accumulate in successive generations over time, resulting in organisms that have desired traits. Large differences in traits appear immediately and are passed to successive generations. Large differences in traits appear immediately and are passed on to all offspring. Small differences in traits appear only if DNA is not copied correctly.

  24. Fill in the following blanks using the given terms. 5. A genetic engineer inserts a gene from a complex organism into a , a piece of DNA. This is then inserted into which will reproduce. Their offspring will all produce the desired . bacteria plasmid circular protein
