Answer:

Plasmids refer to a small molecule of DNA found within a cell that physically gets distinguished from a chromosomal DNA and possesses the tendency to replicate autonomously. The plasmids are generally found in bacterial cells in the form of small circular, double-stranded DNA. The plasmids are used commonly by scientists as the tools to manipulate and clone genes. The plasmids, which are used for these specific objectives are known as vectors.

The administration of the desired gene from one species to another has become possible with the help of plasmids. Thus, plasmids help in performing genetic modification. The procedure by which genetic makeup of a species is changed is called genetic engineering or genetic modification.

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. <span>Plasmids can be used to incorporate a desired gene into something else which is lacking the gene. An example would be that you could take a plasmid from a bacteria which is resistant to an antibiotic and put it into a bacteria which is not resistant to the antibiotic. Therefore, the insertion of the plasmid would make the susceptible bacteria resistant.</span>

Why is it difficult to fossilize large animals?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The hard parts of organisms, such as bones, shells, and teeth have a better chance of becoming fossils than do softer parts. One reason for this is that scavengers generally do not eat these parts. Hard parts also decay more slowly than soft parts, giving more time for them to be buried.

Ivenika [448]

The deer population would drastically be reduced with the slower rate of reproduction and predators that would kill more deer than can reproduce. The environment would likely also have a reduced population of predators for deer, since the food source is reduced.
