Basile [38]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct option is : cells containing empty plasmid vectors

Explanation:

The blue-white screen is a technique which involves the rapid identification of the recombinant bacteria in a vector-based molecular cloning experiment. In this method, a DNA ligated vector is inserted in a host cell which is viable for transformation and grown in presence of X-gal.    

The cells that are transformed with the vectors having the recombinant DNA produce the white colonies. Whereas, the cells transformed with empty vector i.e. the non-recombinant plasmids, produce the blue colonies.

How do hurricanes cause tornadoes?​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

This is called wind shear, and it can induce a spinning movement in the air. At first this creates a spinning cylinder of air that is parallel to the surface. But as with any thunderstorm, the convective cells in a hurricane create strong updrafts. These can tilt the spinning air upright; a tornado is born.
