With LEGO Genetics, you can fiddle with DNA wherever you like, intentionally or accidentally, and all the cells will change overnight (if that). Just wake up and presto! Wings! Fur! Gills! Hulking muscles! Giant brain! Stem cells! You don't even have to eat the equivalent of your entire body mass to create all those new body parts; the old cells and the new ones are just cobbled together like LEGO bricks. That part is usually Hand Waved if not lampshaded.
Instances of genetics in media tend to fit the "dumbed down" perspective on genetics taught to middle/high schoolers. Condensed to a more basic level, curriculum often has it summarized as:
"The genetic double-helix is like a twisting ladder, and the rails are made of Deoxyribose."
"The rungs are the nucleobases Adenine, Cytosine, Thymine, and Guanine."
"The bases form pairs - A to T, and C to G."
Since reality can be boring and most writers can't be bothered, you can expect a great deal of frivolity in the media, with writers either fitting the above concepts or bending the plot further from accuracy. As such, expect scenes where patients "evolve" or "devolve" by radiation exposure while an expository scientist throws around Technobabble near graphics of a spinning, glowing double helix.
It should be noted, however, that gene therapy, which involves the alteration, addition or removal of existing genes in an adult organism, really does exist, but it's currently not permanent in most cases. They're working on that, though. The Hox genes are also an interesting reflection of this trope in real life, as these primitive "blueprint" genes do in fact seem to serve as the 'LEGOs' the genome uses to assemble a body, whether that be a spider, a bird, or a llama. See the Analysis page for more on those.
In fictional media, look for characters ending up an Animorphism or a Half-Human Hybrid because Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke. Related to Chemistry Can Do Anything and Magic Genetics. See also: No Biochemical Barriers, Unstable Genetic Code, and Bio-Augmentation is a likely application. Compare Our Clones Are Different; media likes to treat cloning as a shopping list of desirable traits that can be easily added.
For a more realistic, in-depth discussion, see the analysis sub page.

In Hunter: The Vigil, the Cheiron Group gives its employees supernatural powers by cutting out bits of monsters and stitching them into the subjects. This is given a Hand Wave of the "Nobody has a clue how this works, it just does" variety. Not too surprising given that all the 'spare parts' come from creatures that are more-or-less explicitly magical.

Mewgenics: The whole premise of that game, really. Updates #6 and #8 shed a little more light on the matter: Each cat in Mew is randomly generated by randomly choosing how the limbs, body shape, tail, head, and fur, along with two eyes, ears, eyebrows, and mouth should look, together with a random location for facial features. Most of these are (relatively) cat-like, but some mutations can give your cats things like webbed feet and ram horns. Any of these characteristics (including ones gained in life via random event) can be randomly passed on to offspring along with mental disorders and a single collarless ability, creating cats who look like their parents and possibly fight like them too.

X-Men:
This happens both ways when mutants lose their powers. Sometimes, they transform to human; sometimes, they keep physical changes such as a tail or wings. However, most lose their powers after House of M when a powerful reality-warping Scarlet Witch says "No more mutants..." and the results vary even then: some become completely human, some retain their altered appearance but have no powers, and a few who have physical mutations that disagree with the laws of physics lose whatever made it work before (a long-necked woman's neck snapped and killed her, Chamber's "energy furnace" disappeared, leaving him without multiple internal organs, a Giant Flyer fell from the sky, etc.).
Longshot is an other-dimensional Artificial Human created by the Spineless One scientist Arize. To make matters even more interesting, many of Longshot's genes are taken from his biological son Shatterstar, who due to Time Travel had been sent into the past, where Arize discovered and used him in his experiments, thus making Longshot part of a Stable Time Loop wherein he is the father of his own "father".

In Sluggy Freelance, Santa Claus believes that genetics could be the toy craze of the future, with kids playing with DNA like it was LEGO bricks. As part of his research initiative, one of his elf scientists designed Rockem' Sockem' Robot gas, which makes two strands of DNA bash together and battle each other for survival. Considering that the actual Santa Claus is involved, you can guess that Sluggy Freelance doesn't take genetics too seriously.

In Moojag and the Auticode Secret, the "pofs" were originally children with various genetic disabilities who were involved in experiments that aimed to cure them with cicada DNA. It seemed to work at first, with the children becoming healthy and incredibly strong, but then they grew cicada wings, stopped growing, and became increasingly hyperactive.

The Fringe episode "Unleashed" features a manticore-like creature formed of Gila monster, tiger, scorpion, wasp and a couple others.

This is done to Samus not once, not twice, but thrice: according to Samus' backstory, she was "infused" with Chozo DNA in order to allow her to survive on the planet Zebes, which is the reason for her superhuman strength, stamina, and agility. In Metroid Fusion, as Samus lays dying of an X Parasite infection, she is injected with the DNA of a Metroid, the only known natural enemy of the X Parasites, as a last-ditch effort to save her life. Not only does the vaccine completely destroy all traces of X in her system, but this also somehow alters her DNA so that she has the Metroids' ability to safely absorb X for health and upgrades, further alters the appearance of her suit (which is biologically linked to her and was already disfigured from earlier surgical attempts to save her from the X infection) and gives her the Metroid's weakness to cold. Finally, Metroid Dread reveals that the Chozo DNA infusion involved two donors from genetically distinct Chozo tribes.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) combines this trope with Applied Phlebotinum. Every mutant on the show was originally a normal human or animal that came in contact with the mutagen, which combined their DNA with the DNA of whatever living creature they'd recently come in contact with (the Turtles came in contact with human DNA via Hamato Yoshi, Yoshi became Master Splinter because he touched a rat, etc.).

Naruto:
Sort of justified with Yamato's backstory: Orochimaru wanted to recreate the First Hokage's unique powers over the bijuu, so he spliced Hashirama's DNA into that of sixty infants. This was kept within the same species, so it was not too far into the realm of lunacy, but ultimately Yamato was the only success. The other fifty-nine infants died.
Using Orochimaru's research, Danzo apparently spliced some of Hashirama's DNA into his right arm. While the resulting flesh was able to grant Danzo control over the Sharingans he had also implanted in his arm, the tissue was near-cancerous in behavior. The arm was either sealed with a heavy metal lock to control the tissue or fed a constant stream of chakra to keep the tissue in line.

DC Animated Universe:
Batman Beyond features a gang called the Splicers who have had their DNA spliced with different animal DNA turning them into Half Human Hybrids. In the episode "Splicers", Terry is turned into a literal Bat-Man (a la the Man-Bat), but it is easily reversible. Splicing is made illegal, but at first was perfectly legal and akin to body piercing and tattooing. The different splicings can be combined, too, with the doctor who created them becoming a "true Chimera"; it can also be grotesquely overdone to the point of unrecognizability, as said doctor found out later when he got further overdosed.
A subversion appears in the Justice League Unlimited episode "Epilogue". Amanda Waller wanted to ensure that there would always be a Batman, so she had Warren McGinnis' reproductive DNA replaced with Bruce Wayne's. Warren did not turn into a Bruce Wayne lookalike. Also, while events still led Terry to become Batman, he's a very different one from Bruce Wayne, as he also has inherited traits from his mother.

Dragon Ball:
The logic of Cell's creation in Dragon Ball Z: he is a unique life form created from the DNA of the strongest people to have been on Earth, such as Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Frieza. Furthermore, he's born knowing all their techniques and possesses all of their strengths. His DNA is formed from at least 4 species (Human, Sayian, Namekian, whatever Freeza and his father are) if not more (the various soldiers Freeza brings), and whatever splicing his creator performed, allowing him to regrow lost limbs, get stronger from his life threatening injuries and survive the vacuum of space. It is worth noting however that part of his creation involved dozens on tiny cameras filming the various battles the main heroes have, learning their fighting styles and then collecting their genetic material. Cell also says that a lot of information (including prerecorded messages from his creator) was fed to him during his incubation stage, which explains how he knows the various moves and techniques he does.
In Dragon Ball Fighter Z, it's revealed that Dr. Gero's computers developed another Android, Android 21, using the same process to create Cell, now with the DNA of fighters post-Cell Saga including Golden Frieza, Majin Buu, and Cell himself. With Buu's powers, 21 can continue absorbing more fighters, becoming one of the greatest threats in the franchise.

The mutants from Power Rangers Time Force are the rejected leftovers from the future's Designer Babies program. All of them have "DNA patches" on them that, when exposed, make them grow to gigantic size. Whenever this happens, you see double helixes expanding in size to match (and the reverse is seen when a mutant is defeated and shrunken down).

Horns and spikes from various dinos, raptor arms and communication, cuttlefish genes supposedly for accelerated growth but also give her Chameleon Camouflage...

Underdog takes this trope to its logical extreme. Shoeshine is injected with a "serum", with contains genes for the wings of an eagle and the strength of an elephant, thus giving Shoeshine his abilities with no visual changes! Later in the film, he is forced to give up his powers. They turn into blue pills. He gets them back when he eats one.

Any time genetics or DNA is brought up in Power Rangers, it tends to be this kind.
The mutants from Power Rangers Time Force are the rejected leftovers from the future's Designer Babies program. All of them have "DNA patches" on them that, when exposed, make them grow to gigantic size. Whenever this happens, you see double helixes expanding in size to match (and the reverse is seen when a mutant is defeated and shrunken down).
Power Rangers: Dino Thunder has Mesogog create the monsters via a "Geno-Randomizer" in his island lab fortress, which mixes three different things — DNA from a plant, DNA of an animal and an inanimate object of some kind. Elsa and Zeltrax typically operate the controls and the completed monster emerges from a chamber in the lab. The same controls are used later to activate the "Hydro-Regenerator", which revives and grows the monster. (This is in direct contrast to the source Sentai, where the monsters were created by magical paintings and symphonies empowered by a cursed "Life Berry").
Some seasons, including SPD and Overdrive, provide civilian powers thanks to DNA alterations.
Power Rangers RPM has a massive, Venjix-created attack craft designed to completely wreck the Corinth dome headed straight for the city. Dr. K manages to reprogram it with blue whale DNA (of all things) into a friendly Zord Attack Vehicle, the Whale Jumbo Jet. Ziggy, as usual, points out how odd that is; Dr. K rebuts that she could turn it back into a deadly shield-busting doomsday weapon. "Forget I said anything."
Power Rangers Beast Morphers once again has DNA-altered Rangers, only it's to provide their actual Ranger powerset in addition to civilian powers. Since they use animal DNA, it also gives them some crippling weaknesses too.

In XCOM: Enemy Unknown, this is made possible by the Imported Alien Phlebotinum, Meld. There are ten different genetic alterations that can be applied to your troops, nine of which are unlocked by performing autopsies on fallen aliens: ranging from being able to jump buildings to having a (smaller) secondary heart or being able to camouflage in the right circumstances. The EXALT troops have also been genetically modified using Meld. The Elite Heavy is the most obvious example; their skin glows orange. Most of their modifications are unavailable to your soldiers, since they are apparently too dangerous and unstable.

All over the place in Ultimate Marvel, which does at least try to explain its scientific flim-flam. Hank and Janet Pym put years of effort into their genetic Super Serum to make those who take it grow sixty feet tall within seconds. Even then, sixty feet is the limit because the human skeleton would snap apart after that, although this was quickly abandoned for the Rule of Cool.

Beacon (2018) features this as its primary gimmick: where a normal roguelike would have armor pieces with buffs or normal levelling methods, the game instead has you fuse genetic material taken from the myriad hostile alien lifeforms on the planet you're on. Taking enough of one genetic strain or bosses can cause a mutation, giving you anything from spiny quills that can be fired when you take damage, a carnivorous ivy whip for a hand that drains your enemies of blood, demonic anti-gravity legs powered by hellfire, or an alien dinosaur for a head that lets you morph into a T. rex.

Red Dwarf, never one to take science seriously, has the crew discover a LEGO Genetics device in the episode "D.N.A.". It turns Lister into a chicken, a hamster, and eventually a one-foot-tall RoboCop rip-off. They resort to the last one because the crew had turned a vindaloo into a half-man half-curry hybrid. It also inexplicably turns Kryten — a mechanical droid — into a human being simply due to the presence of a bit of organic matter in his brain.

In the first Spider-Man, Peter Parker is bitten by a genetically altered spider and develops Super-Strength, a "Spider-Sense", and the ability to Wall Crawl (among other powers) overnight. In the display room where he got bitten by the spider, we see a plasma screen showing the bits of DNA added to the spider to create the "super-spider". Later, there is a CGI sequence in which we see the rungs in the DNA double helix changing to the exact same colors as the spider's. Though it might help to not look at the CGI shots as literal, but more a creative way to show the audience what's happening quickly.

Evil geneticist June Covington from Dark Avengers developed a system of genetic 'plug-ins' that modify a person's genetic code. She experimented on herself to gain lethally toxic blood and the ability to exhale toxic gas, plus joints that easily dislocate and a heightened pain threshold.

Stargate-verse:
In the Stargate SG-1 episode "Bane", Teal'c is injected with alien bug DNA and starts mutating not even into a single bug, but into several of them at once. Not that the resolution was any better than the "science"... This might be reasonable if the bugs were parasites using him as a host but as they are claiming to alter his body by changing his DNA, they fail biology forever. Another interpretation, though still problematic but slightly less so (maybe?), would make the insects act like a cross between a virus and cancer, reprogramming the victim's cell's DNA to start creating insect cells (like a virus) which grow (like a tumor) into insect embryos.
The main villains of Stargate Atlantis are a result of LEGO Genetics; a life-sucking Iratus Bug mixed human and/or Ancient DNA with its own and produced the Wraith. Our heroes have developed a retrovirus that is capable of discriminating between the two genetics, and by separating them, "purifying" the subject to entirely human or entirely Iratus bug. In the Season finale series of season 4, we discover that a character has been able to modify the virus to add Wraith DNA to pure humans. Truly LEGO Genetics at its purest; take a little from column A and a little from column B at will. One wonders why the humans in the Stargate universe haven't started ad-hoc mixing of their genes from Earth creatures for their own advantage; surely the military could use some Marines with some grizzly bear genes and some tiger and some lion genes... oh my, that's a powerful soldier.

In Spider-Man: The Animated Series, there are many scientists who specialize in this; it's called "neogenics", a new genetic science which essentially uses ray guns and magic radiation to create LEGO Genetics. In other words, you'd put animal DNA in one part of a ray gun and shoot the gun at a man to get the Scorpion. Most of Spider-Man's Rogues Gallery is created by neogenics either Gone Horribly Wrong or Gone Horribly Right. Despite this, most characters' comic book origins are maintained: Connors trying to regrow his arm, Stillwell creating the Scorpion for Jameson, and (of course) a certain Unlucky Everydude who is bitten by a spider which has passed through a "neogenic recombinator" ray. However, it's Peter's neogenics experiment (trying to cure himself during "The Six Arms Saga") which Michael Morbius borrows. A bat gets into it, Michael gets bitten, and you know the rest.

In The Promised Neverland, this is the secret behind why the demons are so strong and smart. Whatever they eat, they soon gain the traits of, though they will soon lose it if they don't keep eating things with those traits. This is why they keep farms of genius-level children with top-level athletic potential. It's so the demons can later eat them and inherit that genius-level intellect and athleticism, alongside whatever strength, speed, and other better-than-human attributes they have. Deconstructed in that over time, a downside has manifested: Demon society has been divided starkly into a few haves and large amounts of have-nots. Because only the wealthiest demons can afford to consume the aforementioned children, this has led to a super-smart, super-strong ruling class while the lower income classes are completely powerless to do anything against it. Norman, a human, takes advantage of this fact when he and the Lambda Children storm the demon capital — he doesn't need to kill all of the demons, just the aristocracy, though they would obviously be the hardest ones to kill.

Batman Beyond features a gang called the Splicers who have had their DNA spliced with different animal DNA turning them into Half Human Hybrids. In the episode "Splicers", Terry is turned into a literal Bat-Man (a la the Man-Bat), but it is easily reversible. Splicing is made illegal, but at first was perfectly legal and akin to body piercing and tattooing. The different splicings can be combined, too, with the doctor who created them becoming a "true Chimera"; it can also be grotesquely overdone to the point of unrecognizability, as said doctor found out later when he got further overdosed.

BioShock has "plasmids", genetic upgrades which instantly give you fantastic abilities like telekinesis or the ability to shoot fire, lightning, or ice from your hands. Hand Waved by advanced scientific research into creating stem cells, but even that doesn't begin to explain it. In Real Life, a plasmid is a ring of DNA which can indeed be used to perform a very limited version of LEGO Genetics, but only to transfer a small number of genes into cells (and only in bacteria). The game also allows the Player Character to take an active plasmid out of his genome, which is a lot less plausible. The explanation for all these abilities (and the driving force behind most of the plot points) is Rapture's form of Unobtainium, ADAM. Its exact functions are unclear, but it makes the Little Sisters (who produce ADAM via a sea slug implanted in their guts... yeah) virtually invincible, as any wound they sustain is healed almost instantly by accelerated cell division. It is also what allows gene splicing by injection and is apparently very addictive.

Speaker for the Dead reveals that the alien "Descolada" virus caused this effect on the native life forms of the planet Lusitania, resulting in plants and animals literally giving birth to each other. The Descolada is explained as "ungluing" the DNA double-helix into two separate strands — this is fatal to humans and most other organisms but essential for the cellular reconfiguration involved in the life cycle of Lusitanian lifeforms in their transition between plant and animal stages. Basically, it's an extremely aggressive and complicated viral molecule that goes around trying to make LEGO Genetics work on any DNA it encounters; the handful of surviving species on Lusitania have evolved such that they are resistant to the random insertion of DNA while depending on this process to enter the reproductive stage of their lives.

Star Trek:
The various series do this at least once a season. It is interesting to note that "DNA resequencing" is a very common medical practice for treating genetic illness within the Federation, but they have strict No Transhumanism Allowed laws due to humanity's experiences with the Eugenics Wars.
It's hard to imagine that the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Genesis" will ever be outdone in this respect, as it involves the entire crew undergoing this — a cat becomes an iguana, one crew member becomes a snake, a fish becomes a jellyfish, and Lt. Barclay becomes a spider. That's a jump somewhere around the superphylum level.
Star Trek: Voyager:
In the episode "Faces", B'Elanna's Half-Human Hybrid DNA is LEGO-disassembled — a Vidiian doctor separates her Klingon DNA from her human DNA and builds two separate and (basically) functional B'Elannas out of them.
In the episode "Lineage", B'Elanna is upset to discover that the baby she is pregnant with by her human husband Tom has some Klingon facial features, since those traits are dominant and can take generations to breed out. She attempts to forcibly reprogram the Doctor to genetically remove the Klingon features in utero while performing resequencing to fix a spinal issue. Tom and the rest of her friends are appalled.

At one point in The Tales of Alvin Maker, young Arthur Stuart (the child of a runaway slave) is being tracked so his owner can reclaim him. The trackers are using magical ability to follow him via his genetic code: they have a lock of his hair, and this allows them to find him anywhere. Alvin's solution: he rewrites Arthur's entire DNA so it doesn't match the sample. By concentrating really hard. To get around the problem of Arthur's cells dying too quickly to be replaced, he dunks the kid in a river and then "orders" all the cells to adopt the new DNA simultaneously. The only negative effect this has on Arthur is that he loses his ability to mimic others' voices perfectly. Mind you, in some ways, this is more acceptable than many other examples: Alvin picks a few spots in Arthur's DNA and changes them to match his own, rather than make random changes or try to give him frog DNA or something. This doesn't magically give Arthur Alvin's not-inconsiderable range of powers, either, which is a miracle in and of itself given the rest of this page.

In the fourth book, Children of the Mind, the characters theorize that the "Descoladores" — the race which created and disseminated the Descolada — may live off a variation of this trope. As part of the question of where they lay on the Hierarchy of Foreignness, it's put forth that they may communicate through viral-like molecules which the receiver integrates into their DNA. Furthermore, they appear to use the Descolada as a means of terraforming, making it possible that it is as much a part of their own biology as it became to the population of Lusitania.

In The Amazing Spider-Man, Dr. Connors and Peter Parker develop the serum which turns the former into the Lizard this way. There is talk of "cross-species genetics" (the correct term is "transgenesis"), and someone makes a joke that a woman injected with zebra fish DNA to cure Alzheimer's would have to look past "the gills on her neck". This is combined with Extreme Graphical Representation with DNA represented by little blocks in a holographic interface.

Every holder of One for All (apart from the first) in My Hero Academia is this; One for All is passed on by ingesting some of the DNA of the former holder (hair in Deku's case). This DNA gets miraculously incorporated into the receiver's own DNA within a couple of hours, and on top of that, only the quirk is incorporated and no other trait of the previous holder.

In the third season of Sliders, the writers Hand Wave the change in Colonel Rickman's appearance (caused by the change in actors from Roger Daltrey to Neil Dickman) by stating that he absorbs the DNA of his victims whenever he injects himself with their spinal fluid. This is played further in the episode "This Slide of Paradise", when the only people available for Rickman to steal fluids from where the animal/human hybrids created by Dr. Moreau Vargas. Rickman, by the time the episode starts, has become somewhat feral, as a human/human/animal hybrid.

The Relic: A retrovirus found in prehistoric plants horribly alters the victim's DNA by inserting genes from past victims. The reason why there's a dinosaur ape-thing running about in the Museum of Natural History is because these plants could only ease the constant pain and insanity of the affected, since, you know, forcibly altering someone's DNA isn't going to have pleasant results. A later character is able to use rabbit DNA to make a safe street drug, basically a mild version of crack with no downs or life-threatening brain holes.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) has a character called Bugman whose origin has him accidentally combine his genes with those of various arthropods. For some reason, his acquired traits are only expressed when he gets angry.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) combines this trope with Applied Phlebotinum. Every mutant on the show was originally a normal human or animal that came in contact with the mutagen, which combined their DNA with the DNA of whatever living creature they'd recently come in contact with (the Turtles came in contact with human DNA via Hamato Yoshi, Yoshi became Master Splinter because he touched a rat, etc.).

Amazonia by James Rollins revolves around a tree which is implied to be the source of the Garden of Eden myth. It lures animals into its roots, where it keeps them alive indefinitely while playing around with their DNA and using it to modify other animals, including humans. Among its creations are piranha-frogs, super-sized caiman, intelligent jaguars, poisonous ant-wasps, and a tribe of slave humans. The catch: it knew that humans had free will, so it programmed their changes to be unstable. Without living near the tree and eating its fruit, the changes become a virulent and highly contagious cancer.

Magic: The Gathering:
The Slivers can apparently eat things, then assimilate the DNA into their own, and then their offspring have the traits of whatever they've ingested. And can then share those traits with any other Sliver within range. This adaptability makes them so powerful that they've gone extinct twice and still hang around.
The Ravnica blocks feature the Green/Blue Simic guild, a group of genetic engineers who build creatures like Eel-hawks to survive on a Dungeon Punk City Planet where the wilderness has all but vanished.

StarCraft: Depending on whether they're viewed as an animal or a virus, this trope could be considered the very definition of the Zerg, who swarm over alien races to absorb certain genetic traits from them and are trying to acquire beings with "psionic genes" at the start of the first game. StarCraft II shows more examples of such behavior:
In Wings of Liberty, the Zerg hyperevolutionary Virus is shown infesting a scientist, inclusive a screen displaying that 99% of her DNA has been replaced by Zerg genes. She looks as good appropriately squicky.
In Heart of the Swarm, the pseudo-biology gets taken to an entirely new level, with the genetic Chef Abathur sending you out to collect Essence from different species to acquire certain traits, from immunity to cold to being able to be split in two, with both halves surviving independently.

In Maximum Ride, the main characters are human-avian hybrids. Through years of genetic experimentation, they received powers specific to each character (such as mind-reading for the resident Enfant Terrible), and in later installments, they undergo random mutations which give them powers that conveniently tie into the story's plot and quite a few that don't.

Creatures is a rare aversion (at least partially). At least several "genes" go into the functioning of each organ, and let's not even get started on the brain... The visible parts (head, limbs, etc.) can change in appearance with just one gene, but not be removed entirely or visibly duplicated (though the gene can be). (The "double tail" seen on certain C2 Norns, and the lack of tail on Ettins and some Norn breeds is a sprite thing.)

Warhammer 40,000:
The Kroot, an allied species of the Tau Empire, use this as a means to evolve. By eating the flesh of another organism, the next generation of Kroot gains some of the traits which the dinner had. For instance, a Kroot which consumes enough flying animals would eventually pass on the trait of wings. Kroot chieftains, called Shapers, use their knowledge of Kroot genetics to pick out creatures with the most desirable traits for their kindred to eat, in order for their tribe to grow strong and conquer their foes. It's believed that their ability to make primitive but functional guns comes from eating orks (whose mechanical and medical knowledge is genetic). The Kroot also use various Beasts of Battle (kroothounds, krootoxen, Knarlocs) whose ancestors all predominantly ate more of a single species, locking them into that path. Their Tau allies see this as utterly barbaric but value the Kroot's friendship over their habits (it's hinted that the kroot know exactly how much their behavior disgusts other species and play it up accordingly).
The Tyranid are also very good at this. Most of their enhancements are homegrown, but two Tyranid hiveships meeting is a very bad thing because they will fight to the death, then whichever one wins will take the most effective enhancements of the other and incorporate them into its soldiers. Also because of the Tyranid's ridiculously efficient digestive and reproductive processes, fleet will grow to the size of both of them put together. It's mentioned in the 'Xenology' book that the Tyranid genome is basically a whole series of different gene sequences and types with different alleles and such, all spliced together into an impossibly complex whole. The background image for the Tyranid gene sequence indeed reflects this, being made of... everything. (It's all still built from a standard genome template, though, which is alluded to being the Tyranid Ripper.)

El Goonish Shive has Uryuom eggs, which somehow combine the DNA of all of the parents and create a composite being with all of their traits. If more than one species is involved, it generally also gains the ability to change shape. Those must be some pretty advanced eggs. Later justified as it being a type of magic (well, sort of; it's complicated and hasn't been fully explained yet) inherent in the species.

Power Rangers: Dino Thunder has Mesogog create the monsters via a "Geno-Randomizer" in his island lab fortress, which mixes three different things — DNA from a plant, DNA of an animal and an inanimate object of some kind. Elsa and Zeltrax typically operate the controls and the completed monster emerges from a chamber in the lab. The same controls are used later to activate the "Hydro-Regenerator", which revives and grows the monster. (This is in direct contrast to the source Sentai, where the monsters were created by magical paintings and symphonies empowered by a cursed "Life Berry").

Jurassic Park:
In Jurassic Park (1993), the dinosaurs had frog DNA spliced in to fill in the gaps in their genomes caused by 65 million years in a mosquito's stomach. This allows them to change sexes like some frogs and breed.
In Jurassic World, the new park has learned not to use frog DNA this time, but the Indominus rex is a Mix-and-Match Critter made "mostly" from T. rex genes but also a classified mix of half a dozen other species of dinosaur and modern-day animals. Horns and spikes from various dinos, raptor arms and communication, cuttlefish genes supposedly for accelerated growth but also give her Chameleon Camouflage...

Doctor Who:
The series is quite fond of handwaving stuff by gibbering about DNA. For example, the Doctor can survive being extremely close to dying by completely rewriting his genetic structure in seconds.
In the episode "Dalek", the eponymous entity "regenerated itself" by "feeding off the DNA" of a time traveler. In the process, it absorbs said time traveler's DNA and thus becomes part human, giving it human emotions.
The Krillitanes from "School Reunion" are a race who absorb biological components from the species which they conquer. When the Doctor last met them, they looked like humans with long necks; when he meets them again, they're bat-like creatures.
In "Evolution of the Dalels", when the Dalek-Humans are created, they all look completely human; this does, however, make them think like Daleks, except not, because the Doctor's DNA got mixed in by being too close to the freaking power source . . . Interestingly, the Daleks are a classic case of this trope and Hollywood Evolution. Their ancestors, the Kaleds, were Human Aliens who suffered mutations due to the rigors of life in a Forever War and were subsequently re-engineered into Starfish Aliens by a crazed Evilutionary Biologist — so technically, by trying to become more humanoid, they were actually moving back towards what their species originally was.
In "The Lazarus Experiment", Professor Lazarus' project to turn himself young again goes horribly wrong and makes his DNA unstable, causing him to turn into a giant scorpion with a human head that feeds on the life force of others.
River Song, a.k.a. Melody Pond, has Time Lord DNA despite the fact that her parents, Amy and Rory, are human. This is a result of being conceived in the TARDIS and exposed to the temporal schism.
In "A Good Man Goes to War", we find that Strax, a member of the clone-race Sontaran, has been relegated to serve as a "nurse", to atone for this clone batch. He functions mostly as a Combat Medic until infant Melody Pond won't stop crying. Strax tells Amy and Rory, Melody's parent, that she's hungry and he'll take care of it. When Rory objects, Strax informs him that he had himself gene-spliced for all nursing duties and can "produce magnificent quantities of lactic fluid".

Used slightly believably in Crusader: No Remorse when a Mad Scientist explains to you that the "new generation" of Silencers does not have the Silencer's "fatal flaw" (that being something vaguely approximating a conscience). Depending on how much understanding of genetics human science acquires, this may not be entirely implausible.

By combining his DNA stuff with her "special" seafood bisque (and Kani's recently shed shell), Oleander is instantly endowed with a crab shell on her back, and her hands turn into pincers.

Hunter × Hunter uses this trope in a roundabout fashion. The Chimera Ant Queen internally saves the DNA of every animal she ingests, the best traits of which are given to her offspring. Lacking power, at first her children are weak and dumb, but by staying hidden and away from danger, she slowly produces better and better children. The tipping point comes when her offspring start giving her humans to eat, which results in creatures with great physical strength and speed and human intelligence.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Astray has a bizarre application with its "Carbon Humans". These guys are psuedo-clones of other people created by splicing another person's DNA into an ordinary human, then giving them that person's memories via some form of brainwashing. They can even have multiple genomes spliced in. The series makes it very clear that these guys are not clones, though really the difference isn't too great.

E.V.O.: Search for Eden runs on this trope. Every time you add or remove a part, the change is done instantly. This can be exploitable in boss battles by changing one's neck from short to long or vice versa whenever you get low on health, completely refilling your health. The neck is the cheapest part to change, but you can substitute any part and do the same thing. A better tactic — and an even stranger example of this trope — is to grow a cheap horn, which also refills your health. The horn 'breaks' after attacking with it three times... and this somehow counts as an evolutionary change, which refills your health again. Admittedly, EVO isn't exactly clear on whether or not it's supposed to represent real evolution. There are substantial hints that the whole process is being hijacked by aliens, at least in the case of certain enemies, and many creatures berate you for not evolving "the proper way".

In Dr. Franklin's Island, the titular doctor is quite happy to explain the Forced Transformation he's about to inflict on Semi and Miranda — he's going to remove some of their bone marrow and adjust their cells to turn them back into stem cells, then splice them with a mixture of genes from different fish and bird species and re-implant them. Soon the new genetic code will spread and they'll slowly assume new forms. He's already got a zoo full of animals that the process was developed on — piglets with human hands, a capybara with human lips and back legs, parrots with floppy featherless growths — and informs them that the results are unpredictable but ideally will make Semi into a girl who can breathe water and Miranda into a girl who can fly. It does work, but they both become very inhuman in the process, with Semi only retaining her eyes and Miranda having eerily human limbs for a bird.

The main villains of Stargate Atlantis are a result of LEGO Genetics; a life-sucking Iratus Bug mixed human and/or Ancient DNA with its own and produced the Wraith. Our heroes have developed a retrovirus that is capable of discriminating between the two genetics, and by separating them, "purifying" the subject to entirely human or entirely Iratus bug. In the Season finale series of season 4, we discover that a character has been able to modify the virus to add Wraith DNA to pure humans. Truly LEGO Genetics at its purest; take a little from column A and a little from column B at will. One wonders why the humans in the Stargate universe haven't started ad-hoc mixing of their genes from Earth creatures for their own advantage; surely the military could use some Marines with some grizzly bear genes and some tiger and some lion genes... oh my, that's a powerful soldier.

This becomes a major plot point (with a twist) in Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom. The Big Bads have a pretty neat covert operation going: mass murders, being blamed on a Conveniently Available faction. The problem is, the murders (which are originally thought to be a plague), turn out not to be. It turns out that the Big Bads have developed a nanotech weapon that kills people based on their genes — have the right gene set, you live, don't, and you die, in a genocide that would make Hitler green with envy. The parallelism is there and used, including the insane-general-that-thinks-humanity-is-weak-and-is-going-to-purge-it bit that Hitler used to rationalize his genocide. The results are shown in nauseating fashion — the weapon kills slowly, by dismantling the cells that have the incorrect gene sets, dissolving the person slowly and painfully.

The Fly (1986) downplays this with the malfunctioning transporter, while the original 1958 movie stepped right in it; Brundle's DNA has been changed, but the process is a lot slower due to the fly's lower biomass. He gradually becomes a sickly, deformed human-fly hybrid creature as his cells grow, instead of popping out half-fly instantly as he did in the original. In fact, the first thing that shows the beginning of his mutation is the appearance of a strange looking fleshy hair growth in a wound on his back which he got before the failed teleportation.

The logic of Cell's creation in Dragon Ball Z: he is a unique life form created from the DNA of the strongest people to have been on Earth, such as Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Frieza. Furthermore, he's born knowing all their techniques and possesses all of their strengths. His DNA is formed from at least 4 species (Human, Sayian, Namekian, whatever Freeza and his father are) if not more (the various soldiers Freeza brings), and whatever splicing his creator performed, allowing him to regrow lost limbs, get stronger from his life threatening injuries and survive the vacuum of space. It is worth noting however that part of his creation involved dozens on tiny cameras filming the various battles the main heroes have, learning their fighting styles and then collecting their genetic material. Cell also says that a lot of information (including prerecorded messages from his creator) was fed to him during his incubation stage, which explains how he knows the various moves and techniques he does.

Transmetropolitan uses this with the tempers, and later the transients, to graft animal traits onto themselves. The former usually "wear" animal traits for a day, such as becoming part-dolphin to swim in the ocean with dolphins, and the latter took on alien DNA to establish a new identity. People also can slap on skin patches that give them new DNA traits, such as immunity to cancer (in this case, from smoking).

In Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, once your cooking skill is high enough and you find the proper manual, you can just mix bleach, ammonia, and zombie flesh together, drink the resulting concoction, and instantly gain new body parts and powers (or weaknesses). To make things odder:
Once you get even higher skills, you can make specialized mutagens that are guaranteed to mutate you into a specific species. However, most of these mutagens require a nondescript "Chunk of Meat", which can be gotten from almost any animal, meaning you can make Bear Mutagen using wolf flesh, Wolf Mutagen using bear flesh, and so on.
Genetic damage is a possible penalty for failing to install cybernetic augmentations, which implies that all humans already have DNA from all species inside them.

In the episode "Faces", B'Elanna's Half-Human Hybrid DNA is LEGO-disassembled — a Vidiian doctor separates her Klingon DNA from her human DNA and builds two separate and (basically) functional B'Elannas out of them.
In the episode "Lineage", B'Elanna is upset to discover that the baby she is pregnant with by her human husband Tom has some Klingon facial features, since those traits are dominant and can take generations to breed out. She attempts to forcibly reprogram the Doctor to genetically remove the Klingon features in utero while performing resequencing to fix a spinal issue. Tom and the rest of her friends are appalled.

Metroid:
This is done to Samus not once, not twice, but thrice: according to Samus' backstory, she was "infused" with Chozo DNA in order to allow her to survive on the planet Zebes, which is the reason for her superhuman strength, stamina, and agility. In Metroid Fusion, as Samus lays dying of an X Parasite infection, she is injected with the DNA of a Metroid, the only known natural enemy of the X Parasites, as a last-ditch effort to save her life. Not only does the vaccine completely destroy all traces of X in her system, but this also somehow alters her DNA so that she has the Metroids' ability to safely absorb X for health and upgrades, further alters the appearance of her suit (which is biologically linked to her and was already disfigured from earlier surgical attempts to save her from the X infection) and gives her the Metroid's weakness to cold. Finally, Metroid Dread reveals that the Chozo DNA infusion involved two donors from genetically distinct Chozo tribes.
The X Parasites themselves steal the DNA from host creatures and then instantly assume their forms. They are even observed experimenting with their absorbed DNA: mixing and matching different strands to create hybrid creatures or mutants. They mostly stick to combinations that work, but we do see several attempts at the X attempting a combination only for it to fail horribly.

This is essentially the whole premise of Annihilation (2018). A small meteor impacts somewhere on the US East Coast and starts projecting an expanding energy field called the Shimmer that rapidly hybridizes the genes of every living being under the dome with, well, everything else around them. The result is an alien yet stunningly beautiful landscape teeming with impossible creatures, from trees that grow in the shape of humans, to alligators with a shark's concentric rows of teeth, to critters that simply defy attempts at easy classification. Of course, violating the laws of Earth's biology on so many levels is bound to have at least as many nasty outcomes, so for every gorgeous hybrid in the Shimmer there's plenty of horrifying monsters and copious amounts of Body Horror to be found.

Lilith's Brood is centered around the Oankali, an alien race which is capable of probing and sequencing genes on an instinctual level and which flies around the galaxy engaging in "trade" of gene sequences — whether their partners want to or not, in the case of humanity. Naturally, they have impressive abilities to meld the traits of wildly divergent species.

In Beauty and the Beast (2012), Vincent transforms into a "beast" because of being injected with a serum that was supposed to make him a Super-Soldier — said serum was a cocktail of animal DNA. The characters also frequently say that he or his DNA is "evolving", ignoring the fact that that's not what that word means at all.

The New Adventures of Jonny Quest: In the episode "Peril of the Reptilian", not only does Dr. Phorbus create his lizardman by combining human DNA with DNA from dinosaur bones, but he also has an entire island full of mix-'n-matched dinosaurs such as a tyrannosaurus with pterodactyl wings and a pterodactyl with a brontosaurus head and neck. (Since Phorbus touts the lizardman as his ultimate creation, these latter creatures seem to serve no purpose.)

In Gremlins 2: The New Batch, the gremlins find a genetics lab in the corporate office building and drink the genetic material, including, female DNA, spider DNA, bat DNA, and, uh, lightning DNA and gain the associated traits. Then again, what with the already questionable biology of the Gremlins, viewers could care less at this point.

Die Another Day combines this with Magic Plastic Surgery. Colonel Moon undergoes a battery of groundbreaking gene therapy (replacing bone marrow from substitutes harvested from unwilling donors) to alter his entire ethnicity from Asian to Caucasian, allowing him to adopt the new identity of Gustav Graves. However, as a side effect, he is unable to enter REM sleep. Moon/Graves' right-hand-man Zao also goes through the procedure, but the gene therapy is left incomplete when Bond interrupts the operation, leaving Zao with bleached skin, ice-blue eyes, and his hair having fallen out.

It's hard to imagine that the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Genesis" will ever be outdone in this respect, as it involves the entire crew undergoing this — a cat becomes an iguana, one crew member becomes a snake, a fish becomes a jellyfish, and Lt. Barclay becomes a spider. That's a jump somewhere around the superphylum level.

A Grey World manages to achieve this with plausible outcomes. Alexis is implied to be the child of a Mad Scientist's For Science! experiments, but reasonable genetic material sources and sensible results give it a realistic feeling.
