cloning

GM

  • produces exact copies of an organism
  • genes copied within the same species
  • produces a single new organism
  • genes can be swapped across species

GM- benefits from transgenic animals and plants

  • sheep that produce human proteins for treating cystic fibrosis
  • animals that produce commercial quantities of human antibodies
  • tobacco plants that glow in the dark when they need watering
