Answer:
Bacteria do not possess the tendency to withdraw sequences of introns from a gene, thus, if the gene for the human growth hormone were transcribed, it would translate into a non-functional protein.
When the expression of a gene takes place in eukaryotes, the budding mRNA comprising introns are removed consequently at the time of post-translational processing to produce mature mRNA. Also, the human growth hormone is produced by the pituitary gland in the form of a pre-hormone comprising a leader peptide of about 20 amino acids in length, which need to get removed post-translationally to produce a mature functional protein.
Bacteria do not possess the biochemical machinery either to effectively withdraw the leader peptide after translation or to splice out the introns. Thus, when an unchanged human growth hormone is cloned, the bacteria cannot produce the functional human growth hormone.
Answer:
The question to be asked an investigated when observing a structure under the microscope to determine whether it is living is if it has a nucleus if eukaryote or nucleoid if prokaryote.
Explanation:
The major organelle that must be present in all living cells is the nucleus or nucleoid and the protoplasm. The observation of the cell under the microscope will show the subcellular entity, nucleus/nucleoid, more pronounced than other organelles in the cell. The nucleus house the necessary information for the maintenance and reproduction, which is mainly the genetic information that dictates the translational protein products that are needed to build another aspect of the cells. Therefore, when such a tiny structure is placed under the light microscope under the view of oil immersion, the nucleus of the cell should be visible if it is a living structure.
