There are teenagers and baby boomers, hipsters and emo kids. A new crop of machismo-challenged heroesâcall them the âemoâ super-dudesâis headed for screens next year. But despite all the chatter about Weezer's influenceâabout nerd rock, or emo, or whateverâI don't really hear it.
Genetic engineering refers to the direct manipulation of DNA to alter an organismâs characteristics (phenotype) in a particular way. Genetic engineering, sometimes called genetic modification, is the process of altering the DNA in an organismâs genome.
Genetic testing and genetic engineering are not related. Genetic testing is looking at the chromosomal constitution of an individual and determining if they have a genetic dis â¦ order. Genetic engineering on the other hand, is a much larger avenue and is almost a science in itself. This area of molecular biology deals with inserting foreign genes into organisms in order to increase yield or produce novel products.   Genetic testing is useful to test if an unborn fetus has any genetic diseases.
