  1. BIO TECHNOLOGY 10th Grade - Biology

  2. BIOTECHNOLOGY Definition : The application of technology utilizing the characteristics of living organization to obtain useful products is termed as biotechnology. The science of applying biological processes is called biotechnology. The application of biological organisms, systems or processes to manufacturing and service industries is called biotechnology.

  3. BIOTECHNOLOGY PROCESSES A population of identical molecules (genes) or cells or organisms all of which are derived from the same parent, by an asexual process, is called as a ‘clone’. The process of producing genetically similar molecules, cells or organisms from a common precursor ‘invitro’ or ‘invivo’, is known as cloning. Cloning of organisms is now a rapidly developing aspect of biotechnology. Land, Air, Water & Minerals Land, Air, Water & Minerals

  8. APPLICATIONS OF BIOTECHNOLOGY Biotechnology has significant application in agriculture. Its action ranges from improvement of plant and animal breeds to pest control and pathogen control. Biotechnology is used in the food processing industry in the production of acceptable additives. 3. Several techniques of biotechnology are employed in the synthesis of biocatalysts and biopolymers. 4. Biotechnological processes are employed in the control of pollution and treatment of polluted water. 5. The most significant contribution of biotechnology is in the field of health care; several vaccines, drugs, hormones (like insulin) are being produced on a large scale using genetic engineering techniques.

  9. LIMITATIONS OF BIOTECHNOLOGY Land, Air, Water & Minerals Cloning in particular has raised serious social, moral and ethical questions.There have been protests in many countries against attempts for human cloning it is necessary that the tools of biotechnology should be used properly and only for beneficial purposes; and not for destructive activities.
