consequences of dna technology
when exposed to air, the flesh of apples turn brown. arctic apples are a result of introducing an anti-
browning gene in the apples genetic makeup. which technology was most likely used to produce
the anti-browning property of the arctic apple?
genetic engineering bt gene production
xenotransplantation half - life determination

Genetic engineering involves directly manipulating an organism's genes. In this case, introducing an anti - browning gene into the apple's genetic makeup is a classic example of genetic engineering. Bt gene production is related to a specific gene (from Bacillus thuringiensis) used for pest resistance. Xenotransplantation is about transplanting organs between species. Half - life determination is related to the time it takes for a substance (like a radioactive substance or a drug) to reduce by half, which is not relevant here.
