Biotechnology close biotechnologyThe use of selective breeding and genetic modification techniques in farming. is the use of living organisms to develop or make products that help us.
This is quite a broad definition and many different organisms or processes are involved..
Biotechnology - The manipulation (through genetic engineering) of living organisms to produce useful commercial products (such as pest resistant crops and new bacterial strains).
Hydroponics - A method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions, in water, without soil..
Biotechnology is the manipulation of living organisms and processes to create products useful for humans.
The production of mycoprotein is an example of this..
Biotechnology can help us meet the food demands of our ever increasing population.
Crops directly feed us or animals we keep for food.
They are commonly cereals, fruit and vegetables.
We can change (or modify) crops in two key ways - selective breeding and genetic modification.
Humans have used biotechnology for thousands of years in agriculture and used selective breeding to produce better foods and medicines.
More recent examples of biotechnology include:
Biotechnology is the alteration of living organisms to develop or make products that help us.
This is quite a broad definition and so many different organisms or processes are involved.
