What are the three critical research areas of biotechnology ?

Q.

MOET is a method of

1. Cloning in sheep

Q.

In cloning of cattle a fertilized egg is taken out of the mother's womb and

1. In the eight-cell stage, cells are separated and cultured until small embryos are formed which are implanted into the womb of other cows.

2. In the eight-cell stage, the individual cells are separated under electric field for further development in culture media.

3. From this up to eight identical twins can be produced

4. the egg is divided into 4 pairs of cells which are implanted into the womb of other cows.

Q. The terms ‘microinjection’, ‘biolistics’ and ‘disarmed pathogen vector’ are related to

1. bioterrorism
2. biosafety
3. integrated pest management
4. recombinant DNA technology

Injections like ___(iv)___ and prostaglandins are given to the recipients accordingly. The recipient of an embryo is called ___(v)___.

1. (i) Progesterone (ii) Embryos (iii) Eggs (iv) FSH (v) Surrogate
2. (i) Progesterone (ii) Eggs (iii) Embryos (iv) FSH (v) Surrogate
