    Microorganisms are used in biotechnology or genetic engineering for I. the production of bioplastic II. the production of hormones III. gene therapy

    The term biotechnology refers to the use of living organisms or their products to modify human health and their human environment. For example, 'testtube' programme, synthesis of a gene or correcting a defective gene are all part of the biotechnology. The basis of the modern biotechnology are genetic engineering and maintenance of sterile conditions. Genetic engineering is the technique that alter the chemistry of genetic material i.e. DNA and RNA, then this genetic material is introduced into host organisms, which alter the phenotype of the host organism.
