<h2>What did the Human Genome Project accomplish?</h2>

In essence, it served as a standard for how a human genome appears. One of the first stages in determining if a mutation causes an illness is realizing that there IS a mutation. In order to compare it to "regular" human DNA sequences, we completed the human genome project. Similar to this, a human genome sequence is required in order to compare a human genome or gene to that of a dog or a fruit fly. It essentially changed us from doing genes one at a time to performing them in bulk. You can quickly trace a novel mutation or gene back to the reference genome to determine its location, typical sequence, etc.

Neanderthal genome sequencing is a nice illustration of this. In the absence of a reference genome to match it to, it was just a collection of random sequences. They were able to align and compare the reference human genome to determine precisely how humans vary from Neanderthals. That's a fascinating and significant piece of study that would not have been possible without the creation of a high-quality human reference genome.

Which antibiotic would you use to determine if the recombinant dna was taken in?

Brrunno [24]

Antibiotic used include kenamycin, ampicillin and tetracycline. This is useful to determine if and which bacteria took up the plasmid as they were supposed to during the process of recombination. Host bacteria are normally killed by these antibiotics. If the recombinant plasmids were taken up by the bacteria, plasmid may have contained a DNA gene for resisting the effects of one or more antibiotics. Host bacteria are placed in a growth medium containing an antibiotic to which they have a resistant gene in their recombinant plasmid DNA survivor. If they havent taken the plasmid they die.

How does a psuedoscorpian differ fron a true scorpion

alisha [4.7K]

Among the most obvious differences between pseudoscorpions and scorpions is size. Scorpions range from a half-inch long to more than 7 inches; many of the commonly encountered scorpions in the United States are 2 inches long or longer, making them easy to spot with the naked eye. Pseudoscorpions, on the other hand, reach between just under one-tenth of an inch to barely over a quarter-inch long, making them inconspicuous in most circumstances. Most are under 1/8 inch.

What is a organelle

bija089 [108]

<span>An organelle is a functional subunit enclosed by a membrane within a eukaryotic cell. The name "organelle" means little organ and the name comes from the analogy with organs: what an organ is to a body, an organelle is to a cell. So, the organelle is the organ of the cell. There are different types of organelles in cells, such as nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, chloroplasts, vacuoles, and they all have a different function. For example, the nucleus is the organelle which main function is control of cell activities. Mitochondria are organelles which main function is energy production. </span>

Answer:

It would be painful at it's initial stages

Explanation:

The improper placement of the right hip is going to cause an imbalance in walking, standing and most especially while climbing the stairs. This condition can be corrected by using a footwear with a higher sole on the right leg
