Consider the following statements about genetic engineering and bioprocess engineering: 1. Genetic engineering is concerned with altering DNA or RNA and introducing it into host organisms to change their phenotype. 2. Bioprocess engineering provides sterile conditions to grow only desired microbes or eukaryotic cells in large quantities. 3. The three fundamental steps of genetic modification are: identifying desirable DNA, introducing it into the host, and ensuring its maintenance and inheritance. 4. Genetic engineering is mainly focused on maintaining sterile industrial conditions for large-scale product manufacture. 5. Bioprocess engineering is unrelated to the production of antibiotics, vaccines, or enzymes.
