how does gene manipulation occur

Gene splicing: gene splicing is a type of gene manipulation that involves cutting out a peace of a certain type of DNA that codes for a specific trait the inserting that peace into the desired DNA. To do so, a restriction enzyme must cut the DNA sequence out of the DNA, then cut the DNA it is going into and attach them together. It is very important that that same restriction enzyme cuts the different DNA because this is what allows the cut out trait to attach to the new DNA. the result of gene manipulation are called transgenic organisms.

gel electrophoresis is another type of gene manipulation
That separates and analyzes macromolecules fragments.
Gel electrophoresis works by separating fragments of DNA
Based on their shape and size.
