Chapter 13 Section 1-2 Study Stations

Directions: You will complete several stations over the course of the next two days to help
you understand genetics and biotechnology. You will be split into groups and you must stay
with your group. At each station you will be responsible for completing the required task
with your group and answering the provided multiple choice questions. At the end of the
two days, you will turn in all study station materials.
Good luck, have fun, and stay focused!

1. Tell what selective breeding is and why it is used.

2. Identify some advantages of hybrid organisms.

3. Explain how having a pure breed of dogs has both advantages and disadvantages.

4. Indicate how inbreeding leads to the development of pure breeds.

5. Imagine a breed of chickens in which black-and-white-speckled feathers are a


recessive trait. If a breeder has a chicken that has solid black feathers, how can
the genotype of this chicken be determined? Use the terms homozygous and
heterozygous in your answer.

1. Describe Name and describe the two different types of DNA ends that can be
produced by restriction enzymes.

2. State the purpose of PCR.

3. Explain how DNA fragments are separated by gel electrophoresis.

132 Genetics and Biotechnology CHAPTER 13 Unit 3


GMOs

What are GMOs?

One of the most commonly discussed types of GMO would be genetically modified foods. How are genetically modified
foods made, and what are some examples of foods that are genetically modified?

What are some of the safety risks involved with GMOs? In comparison, what are some benefits to GMOs and reasons
why they would be considered safe.

As discussed in the article, GMOs don’t have to be labeled at the store in the USA, but there are many countries that
more heavily regulate GMOs. Using evidence from the article and your previous answers, make an argument for
whether GMOs should be labeled in the USA. (3-5 sentences)
