75.
Some goats have been genetically modi ed
76. Plants in species A cannot ght most fungal
with a human gene that codes for a blood
infections. Plants in species B make a
anticlotting factor. The anticlotting factor
protein that kills many fungi. One possible
can then be extracted from the goat milk
way for humans to produce species A plants
and used during surgery. To produce these
with the ability to synthesize this protein
genetically modi ed goats, scientists most
would be to
likely
(1) mutate fungal DNA and introduce the
(1) injected the anticlotting factor into the
mutated DNA into species B using a
milkproducing glands of the animals
virus
(2) add DNA from species B into the soil
(2) added modi ed DNA into the milk of

the animals
(3) inserted the human gene into the egg
(3) insert the gene for the protein from
cells of goats
species B into a chromosome in
species A
(4) altered the nutritional requirements of
newborn goats
(4) cross species A and a fungus to
stimulate the synthesis of this protein
