Its in a way both C and D as at cholesterol acts as a fluidity buffer that at high temps. the cholesterol makes the membrane less flexible and at lower temps. makes the membrane more fluid

Sorry Hope that helps though

A researcher is using the pUC18 vector to introduce a human gene into bacteria. He exposes bacteria to this recombinant molecule
allsm [11]

Answer:

The results from this experiment conclude that all of the resulting bacteria contain the pUC18 plasmid without the human gene.

The method of genetic engineering might seem very easy but in actual it is a very difficult task and most of the time a person won;t get the expected results. The chances of a vector to actually take up a recombinant DNA are very less. Even after this, the chances of a recombinant plasmid to enter a bacterial cell by transformation are very few.

4. Which of the following elements does not want to have eight valence electrons? a. magnesium c. hydrogen b. oxygen d. nitrogen
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Hydrogen.

Explanation:

Hydrogen is the simplest chemical element that exists. The symbol for the chemical element Hydrogen is "H" and it is a colourless, tasteless, odorless, and highly flammable gas.

Hydrogen is a chemical element found in group (1) of the periodic table and as such it has one (1) electrons in its outermost shell. Therefore, Hydrogen has an atomic number of one (1) and a single valence electrons because it has only one proton and one electron in its nucleus.

Based on the octet rule which states that atoms of chemical elements gain, lose or share electrons so as to have eight (8) electrons in their valence shell. Therefore, atoms of chemical elements bond in order to attain the electronic configuration of a noble gas i.e a full valence shell which comprises of eight (8) electrons.

However, the chemical element "Hydrogen" is an exception to the octet rule because it is only able to hold a maximum of two (2) valence electrons in its outermost shell to become full.

<em>Hence, Hydrogen is an element which does not want to have eight valence electrons. </em>
