Please make sure that the following questions are clearly answered in your GMO poster (you may even want to use them as headings/bullets). I am not changing the rubric, but you may find these questions helpful in preparing your project, as they will be questions I will ask during your poster presentation.
1. What is the product being produced before and after the technology of genetic engineering (this is the focus of your poster)?
- Be specific. “corn” is an incomplete response.
- Genetically Modified corn how? Modified for pesticides? herbicides? increased vitamins? vaccines?
2. What are the similarities of the product being produced before and after genetic engineering ?
- What are the differences of the product being produced before and after genetic engineering ?
3. What is the name of the gene that was transferred to produce the product/organism in question?
- What is the original gene product (what does the gene code for) ?
- What organism did the gene come from? How did scientists get it out of the original organism?(include pictures)
- Into what organism was the gene inserted? How did scientists get it into the recombinant organism?(include pictures)
- What are the pros and cons of each method?
