The most powerful approach to isolating a single mutant from a population of billions is positive selection.
Answer:
DNA:
- is a single molecule that can be over 10,000,000 nucleotides long
- is usually double stranded
- includes the base thymine
- is the genome for prokaryotic organisms
RNA:
- can be translated into a protein
- is usually single stranded
- includes ribose sugar
- is a single molecule that can form a complex secondary structure
Explanation:
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary genetic material of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, while RNA is the genetic material of many viruses. DNA is a double helix molecule composed of four types of nucleotides: a nitrogenous base (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine), a five-carbon sugar (i.e., deoxyribose), and a phosphate group. On the other hand, RNA is usually a single-stranded molecule whose nucleotides contain ribose sugars and Uracil bases replace Thymine bases. During translation, a type of RNA molecule referred to as messenger RNA (mRNA) is used as template to direct the synthesis of a polypeptide chain (protein). This RNA molecule can fold to form stable double-stranded RNA hairpins (i.e., secondary structures).
Answer:
Many people believe it to be unethical to remove/implant an embryo into a female, just as they see it unfitting to manipulate an individual when in an embryonic state.
Explanation:
9. It is a warm summer night, 32oC, with the relative humidity at 100%. During the night, the air temperature drops to 18oC. You would expect to see___on the ground in the morning.
A) dew
10. Scientists believe that during the Late Cretaceous period, many small seas dried up and new mountains began to rise. Which would MOST LIKELY cause them to believe the temperature decreased during this time?
A) The absence of fossils of warm-weather plants.
11) A hurricane is MOST LIKLEY to occur in an area
A) near warm water.
12) A team of archaeologists excavating a sedimentary rock layer come across some primitive hunting tools used by early humans. As the dig progresses, they unearth the fossilized remains of a dinosaur from another layer of the sedimentary rock. Why do these discoveries indicate that the rocks were formed over millions of years?
C) Dinosaurs became extinct millions of years before humans appeared.
