If you could genetically combine the DNA of any two organisms pictured below to create a new, "Super Creature", which two would you select and why? What would be a potential risk to your experiment?

Question

Imagine this-you work for a biotech company with special access to technology to help you genetically modify organisms. If you could genetically combine the DNA of any two organisms pictured below to create a new, "Super Creature", which two would you select and why? What would be a potential risk to your experiment?

Grading Considerations

Your answer must include:

Two of the organisms pictured
An explanation of why you selected those two creature to make a "Super Creature"
A potential risk to the experiment
Your answer should be 3-4 sentences in length. In an effort to combat plagiarism, answers longer than 6 sentences will not be considered. Answering concisely and to the point is evidence of your understanding of the topic.

Answer 1

If I had the opportunity to genetically combine the DNA of two organisms pictured below, I would select the cheetah and the eagle. By combining the cheetah's speed and agility with the eagle's aerial capabilities and sharp vision, we could potentially create a super creature with extraordinary speed and the ability to soar through the air. However, a potential risk to this experiment could be the compatibility of the genetic material from two different species, which might not produce the desired traits or could result in negative outcomes such as deformities or health issues.

Answer 2

Make it shorter

Answer 3

If I could genetically combine the DNA of two organisms pictured below, I would select the cheetah and the eagle. The cheetah's speed and agility combined with the eagle's aerial capabilities and sharp vision could create a super creature with incredible speed and the ability to fly. However, a potential risk to this experiment is the compatibility of genetic material from two different species, which could result in undesirable traits or health issues.
