\nBiotechnology is the study and use of techniques using living organisms or their products for the benefit of human race. It is the controlled use of biological agents such as microorganisms or cellular components for beneficial uses.<\/p>\n
\nYes.<\/p>\n
\nSince ancient times, microbes have been exploited for fermentation, baking etc. even without any idea of the mechanism behind them.
\nThe various ways in which microbes were utilized in ancient times are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\nSome food items prepared using microbes are bread, idli and dosa (South India), soya sauce, koji (Japan), temph (Indonesia), curd, cheese, butter and gari (West Africa)<\/p>\n
\nTwo pioneer institutes in the field of Biotechnology in India are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\nFour industrial applications of biotechnology are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\n(Write any 4)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
\n(b) Gobar gas or biogas is obtained from cowdung, garbage etc. when it is placed in biogas plants where anaerobic bacteria produce methane etc. The waste slurry is used as manure.<\/p>\n
\nFive applications of biotechnology in the field of medicine are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\nKoji – Japan
\nGari – Africa
\nTemph – Indonesia
\nVinegar – Fermentation
\nBaking – Yeast<\/p>\n
\n(a) Idli, dosa
\n(b) Wine, beer
\n(c) Insulin
\n(d) Criminals
\n(e) biological sciences, technology<\/p>\n\n
