Answer:
Cancer is caused by changes to certain genes that alter the way our cells function. Some of these genetic changes occur naturally when DNA is replicated during the process of cell division. But others are the result of environmental exposures that damage DNA.
Answer:
Gallbladder
Explanation:
The Gallbladder holds bile produced in the liver
Since no table is given, I will explain how genes are inherited. After Mendel’s discoveries were
accepted, scientists realized that traits passed to offspring were the result
of genes being passed from parents to offspring. This is an example of the law
of inheritance. The genes that are passed down from the parents are being
shared by the offspring. It can be shown if the trait is recessive or dominant
from the parents’ gene. <span>Chromosomes
are inherited from the parents. One chromosome from each of 23 pairs came from
each of the parents. The two chromosomes of a pair (except for the sex
chromosomes) contain the same genes, but the genes have small differences. The
X and Y Chromosomes determine the organism’s sex. One chromosome pair - the sex
chromosomes - is unique. Typically females have two X chromosomes and males
have an X and a Y. Mothers always pass an X chromosome on to their children.
Whether the father passes on his X chromosome (leading to a pair of X
chromosomes) or his Y chromosome (making a mixed set) determines your sex. </span>
Answer: To eliminate bacteria that failed to take in the plasmid.
Explanation:
Research shows that plasmid DNA is only taken in by small percentage of bacteria in a large population.
Therefore, the need of growing transformed bacteria in the presence of ampicillin is very important. The main reason of this process is to kill off or eliminate bacteria that have failed to take in the plasmid, due to their possession of recombinant DNA plasmid pARA-R (an ampicillin resistance gene), that allows them to survive.
However, after completion of the aforementioned procedure, the bacteria that have been transformed will be able to take in the plasmid.
