Biotechnology applied to everyday life.

Different plants that produce edible fruits are sown. Food for in vitro growth of insects is prepared. DNA is extracted using materials that are commonly found at home. An overview is provided of biological control agents (insects, fungi), which are then observed through a microscope. Antioxidant activity of compounds of natural origin is detected.
