The laboratory technique used to change the DNA of the organisms is known as Genetic engineering. The individuality of the organism is known from its DNA. The biochemical process in the organisms helps the organism to store the in the DNA. DNA is the main player in the health, growth and the life of the organism. Genes are the specific features and functions which are which are associated with the DNA.
According to Molecular Biologist, DNA structure can be changed by number of enzymes. Some of the enzymes can also join or cut the strands of the DNA structure. With the help of enzymes, the scientists cut down the genes from the DNA and customize the DNA by the help of genes. The scientists believe that with the help of genetic engineering they can improve number of things like the quality and the standards of the food we eat, survival of the fish in very cold waters and many more things.
So, the in shorter terms genetic engineering reefers to the modifications (changes) made in the DNA by using advanced technology.
