4 Dolly the famous sheep was cloned in 1997. How did they do it?
(1 Point)
Used a plasmid from a bacteria to insert into the sheep
Used a skin cell and placed the DNA into a cell without a nucleus
Used the DNA sequence of another sheep and used CRISPR to insert it into another sheep
Used PCR to make copies of the sheep DNA and inserted it in another sheep

14 How was genetic engineering used to develop treatments for diabetes?
(1 Point)
The gene for human insulin was inserted into the genome of diabetes patients.
The gene for human insulin was inserted into cow and pig genomes and taken from their pancreas.
The gene for human insulin was replaced by the gene for cow or pig insulin so that it wouldn’t be damaged.
The gene for human insulin was inserted into E. coli bacteria so that this microbe could produce an identical version of human insulin
15The best illustrations to use to truly understand CRISPR are:
(2 Points)
copy and paste
cut and paste
scissors and glue
camera and scissors
16 A researcher chooses a plasmid, bacterial DNA, with a gene that gives resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin. She isolates a human gene that codes for a protein and inserts into the bacteria's DNA. Next, she cultures the new bacteria on a nutrient medium contaning the antibiotic ampicillin.
Which of the following would indicate that the bacteria contain the human gene?
(1 Point)
They produce ampicillin.
They are resistant to ampicillin.
They attack the human protein encoded by the human gene.
They produce the human protein encoded by the human gene.
