AQA GCSE Science Revision Biology "Role of Biotechnology" (Triple)

This video is based on the AQA GCSE specification. If you are following a different exam board, then I recommend that you check your specification. Find my revision workbooks here: https://www.freesciencelessons.co.uk/workbooks

In this video, we look at the role of biotechnology in food production. We start by looking at genetic modification using the example of Golden Rice. We then look at the use of microorganisms including Fusarium and mycoprotein.
