the branch of biotechnology that uses biological process to overcome environmental problems
Bioremediation, the use of microrganisms to consume or help remove toxic chemical wastes and metals from contaminated soil and water, is cleaning up the environment using enzymes or living organisms such as naturally-occurring and genetically modified microrganisms such as bacteria and fungi.
relating to two molecules of DNA exchanging genetic material
Biotecnologists can use the tools of gene tenology to recombine, or mix and match, the most desirable traits of several bacterial species to create recombinant(genetically engineered) varieties.
a complex protein produced by cells that acts as a catalyst

any substance that can be metabolized to give energy
Some slowly break down the many different types of waste, and others use oil as a source of nutrients, just as we use food.These bacteriacan be used to break down oil spills at sea or on the shore.

part of DNA controlling physical characteristics and growth
