Read the article and write a summary of its contents. Address all of the following in your summary:

  • What article did you read? Why did you choose this article?
  • What are the main points presented in the article? What message is the author trying to communicate?
  • What is gene of interest (being modified) and what is the purpose of this gene? Which organism is the gene inserted into, and what is the intended result of expressing this gene?
  • How are microorganisms that normally affect the immune system, such as bacteria or viruses, used beneficially as tools in biotechnology?
  • What are the pros and cons of this technology?
  • What do other sources of information say about the same concepts presented in the article? Are there discrepancies between the information in the article and that from other sources?
  • Where in your life (or in the life of a friend or family member) might the application of this form of biotechnology apply?

Your article should be from a reputable source and should meet all of the checklist items in the Source Evaluation Form. Complete an evaluation of your article, using the appropriate Source Evaluation Form (linked in the Resources under the Capella Resources heading). Download the form and answer the questions.

Formatting Requirements

  • APA formatting: References and citations should be formatted according to APA (6th edition) style and formatting.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12-point.
