Connect to Technology One of the revolutions in molecular biology in the past decade was the use of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) to make it easier to visually identify specific components inside living cells. GFP can be seen under a microscope because it fluoresces, or glows, when certain types of light shine upon it. Scientists can instruct a cell to link GFP to a specific protein as it is being created and then follow the protein under a microscope. Explain why this might be useful.
