Answer:

Restriction enzymes cut the large DNA of human cells into smaller fragments at specific regions called as restriction sites.

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are endonucleases that cut the DNA into smaller fragments. These DNA fragments are separated from each other through gel electrophoresis and used to make the DNA profiles of individuals. Thus, restriction enzymes help in study of human genome by carrying out site specific digestion of human DNA.

Jose and Karl were both exposed to the influenza virus at work. Jose had a flu shot made from killed influenza virus six weeks a
ipn [44]

The correct answer is Karl will get sick and Jose will not this time, but neither will get this influenza again since they both will have acquired active immunity to it.

In the case of Jose artificially active immunity has been induced due to vaccination. A vaccine instigates a primary response against the antigen without resulting in any signs of the disease. On the other hand, Karl will acquire active immunity naturally in future, as when an individual get exposed to a live pathogen, he or she develops the disease, and turns immune as an outcome of the primary immune response.

dmitriy555 [2]

The correct answer is 'If molecules are small enough, then they can pass through the semipermeable membrane because they can cross the semipermeable membrane from their small pores or openings'.

The semipermeable membrane is permeable to few molecules, and the smaller molecules pass through the molecules from small pores present in the semipermeable membrane. The size of the big molecules are large, so, they cannot cross through semipermeable membrane.
