What did Evans genetically modify in his research?

  • Mouse embryos

  • Human embryos

  • Plant embryos

  • Bacterial cells

Answer

Mouse embryos were the focus of Evans' genetic modifications. He used gene targeting techniques to alter the genetic makeup of these embryos, introducing specific changes to their DNA. This allowed him to study the effects of these modifications on the development and function of the resulting animals. Evans' research contributed to the understanding of gene function and the potential for genetic engineering in biomedical applications.
