Science (Biotechnology)

Traditional biotechnology

Use of living organisms cells or biological processes to create useful products and solve problems

Traditional biotechnology

This uses living things to improve our lives

Bacteria yeast and fungi

What are the three microorganisms

Bio

It means life or living things

Technology

These are the tools

Bread

Yeast ferments sugar and releases carbon dioxide making the blank rice

Yogurt

Bacterias ferment milk to produce blank lactic acid bacteria

Cheese

Bacterias ferment milk and help form blank

Vaccines

Organisms are used to produce or blank that protect against diseases

Insulin

Engineered to produce human blank

Traditional biotechnology

Uses natural biological process such as bread cheese and yogurt

Modern biotechnology

Uses advanced science to improve living organisms such as genetic engineering vaccines insulin and improve crops

Microorganisms

These are tiny living organisms that are responsible for fermentation example or yeast and bacteria

To improve human health produce more food protecting environment and create better products

Why did biotech evolve

Red or medical biotech

This type of biotech is for human health and medicine that treats and prevents diseases

Green or agricultural biotech

This biotech is focused on agriculture and food production and increase food production and improve crop quality

White or industrial biotechnology

This biotechnology is focused on industry and manufacturing to produce useful products

Gray or environmental

This biotechnology protects the environment and help reduce pollution and protect nature

Ancient time

Bread cheese and yogurt

1800

The period where microorganisms

1900

Period where vaccines and antibiotic were invented

Today or modern period

Period where genetic engineering and better crops were invented

Fermentation

It is a biological process in which microorganisms break down sugar without oxygen or insufficient oxygen
