In this dot point, we need to take note of the important terms that we need to address...

• uses

• advantages

• current genetic technologies

• induce genetic change

We must take note of the fact that we asked to focus on the 'advantages' of 'current technologies'.

ACTIVITIES:

1. Watch the videos that have been posted onto this Google site for this dot point.

2. Identify current genetic technologies that induce genetic change.

3. Describe the current technologies that induce genetic change - remember, you must be able to describe the process involved in the technology as a series of steps.

4. Identify the advantages of each genetic technology identified and describe and explain why they are considered to be an advantage.

5. Use the Module 6 IQ3 Powerpoint to help you to develop notes and answer this dot point - answer the questions and activities listed in the powerpoint.

6. Read and answer questions on pages 316 - 374 of the Pearson Yr 12 biology textbook.

In this dot point, we need to focus on the following terms:

• compare (similarities and differences)

• processes and outcomes

• reproductive technologies 

• artificial insemination

Keeping in mind the 'including but not limited to', we will also investigate the processes involved in Invitro Fertilisation (IVF).

This dot point requires you to know how each of these reproduction technologies work - you need to be able to describe them in detail.

ACTIVITIES:

1. Watch the videos that have been posted onto this Google site for this dot point.

2. Describe the processes of artificial insemination, artificial pollination and IVF - remember, you must be able to describe the process involved in the technology as a series of steps.

3. Answer the dot point - COMPARE the processes and outcomes of artificial insemination, artificial pollination and IVF.

In this dot point, we need to focus on the following terms:

• ASSESS (make a clear judgement and back it up with evidence)

• effectiveness (positives of the cloning process and outcomes)

• whole organism cloning

• gene cloning

• therapeutic cloning

• including but not limited to

Keeping in mind the 'including but not limited to', we will also investigate the processes involved in therapeutic cloning.

This dot point requires you to know how cloning works - you need to be able to describe the types of cloning in detail.

ACTIVITIES:

1. Watch the videos that have been posted onto this Google site for this dot point.

2. Describe the processes of whole organism cloning, gene cloning and therapeutic cloning - remember, you must be able to describe the process involved in the technology as a series of steps.

3. Answer the dot point - ASSESS the effectiveness of cloning.

• techniques and applications

• recombinant DNA technology

• transgenic organism

This dot point requires you to know how recombinant DNA technology works - you need to be able to describe recombinant DNA technology in detail.

ACTIVITIES:

1. Watch the videos that have been posted onto this Google site for this dot point.

2. Describe the processes of recombinant DNA technology - remember, you must be able to describe the process involved in the technology as a series of steps.

In this dot point, we need to focus on the following terms:

• EVALUATE (make a judgement against set criteria)

• benefits

• genetic technologies

• agricultural applications

• medical applications

• industrial applications

This dot point requires you to know what are the benefits of using genetic technologies and then evaluate this against the 'set criteria' of what would benefit agriculture, medicine and industry.

ACTIVITIES:

1. Watch the videos that have been posted onto this Google site for this dot point.

2. Describe the 'benefits' of genetic technologies in:

• agriculture

• medicine

• industry

3. Find specific examples of genetic technologies to use for agriculture, medicine and industry.

4. Develop the 'set criteria' of what would be considered 'benefits' for agriculture, medicine and industry.

5. Answer the dot point: EVALUATE the benefits of using genetic technologies in agriculture, medicine and industry.
