Craig Venter and Claire Fraser are working to create a "minimal organism.". They are starting with Mycoplasma genitalium, a bacterium that has 517 genes. By disabling its genes one at a time, they discovered that 265–350 of them code for essential proteins. The scientists are synthesizing the essential genes and inserting them, one by one, into an engineered cell consisting only of a plasma

membrane and cytoplasm. They want to see how few genes it takes to build a new life form. What properties would such a cell have to exhibit for you to conclude that it was alive? What will be an ideal response?
