Ch-10: Biotechnology | MCQs
Biotechnology has numerous practical applications that impact daily life, ranging from health and agriculture to environmental sustainability. Here are some keys ways biotechnology is applied in daily life: vaccines and therapeutics, personalized medicine e.g (insulin production), agriculture, (genetically modified organisms, bio-fertilizers and bio-pesticides, disease-resistant plants),
food and beverage industry (fermentation technology, food preservatives, plant-based and cultured meat) environmental sustainability (bioremediation, biofuels, biodegradable plastics), household products (enzymes and detergents, personal care products e.g skin and hair care products), forensic and law enforcement (DNA fingerprinting, paternity testing), animal health and breeding genetic engineering in livestock, veterinary vaccines, health monitoring, genome sequencing, water treatment. Biotechnology has a profound impact on daily life by improving health care, food production, environmental sustainability and even the products we use in our homes.
