Biotechnology-the use of living organisms or their products to enhance our lives and our environment is a broad and increasingly complex discipline that encompasses many specialized areas. Our understanding living organisms has been immensely deepened by the contributions that molecular biology and recombinant DNA methods have made to basic scientific research. We are able to isolate, analyze, and manipulate genes and alter the genetic makeup of living organisms. Cloning organisms has become almost routine, and stem cell research looks promising. Indeed, biotechnology is revolutionizing agriculture and medicine.
