Chapter 20 Biotechnology Lecture Outline Overview: The DNA Toolbox ? In 1995, researchers sequenced the entire genome of a free-living organism, the bacterium Haemophilus influenzae. ? A mere 12 years later, genome sequencing was under way for more than 2,000 species. ? By 2007, researchers had completely sequenced hundreds of prokaryotic genomes and dozens of eukaryotic ones, including all 3 billion base pairs of the human genome. ? Rapid advances in DNA technology?methods of working with and manipulating DNA?had their roots in the 1970s. ? A key accomplishment was the invention of techniques for making recombinant DNA, DNA molecules formed when segments of DNA from two different sources?often different species?are combined in vitro.

Julia Leno Dr. Connellan ? 6 AP World History 24 November 2012 Chapter 14-15 Outline Great Khan Ogodei told his Confucian advisor that he planned to turn the heavily populated North China Plain into a pasture for livestock. Yelu (advisor) argued that taxing the existing cities and villages would bring greater wealth but the Khan took the gentler approach although the tax system he instituted was not the fixed-rate method traditional to China but the oppressive tax farming already in use in the Il-khan empires in the Middle East. Benefits of oppressive tax farming: Trade Science Technology Transportation Communication The Mongols also forced exchange of experts and advisers between eastern and western Eurasia. This led to the rapid spread of information, ideas and skills.
