The right answer is All answer options describe plasmids.

A plasmid is a natural or artificially modified circular DNA molecule for use in biological research.

The researchers use the plasmids to insert a DNA fragment of interest, thanks to the cloning cassettes. They can clone genes to express proteins or RNAs and analyze them.

What is the significance of a recombinant plasmid?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

recombinant DNA

A strand of DNA formed by splicing DNA from 2 different organisms is called recombinant DNA

Explanation:

Using the techniques of recombinant DNA technology, certain enzymes known as restriction enzymes capable of cleaving double stranded DNA in the plasmid of bacteria genomes (other organisms like eukaryotes can also be used) are used to obtain specific sequences of DNA bearing desirable traits in the both organisms.

Once the two DNA fragments have been obtained, another enzyme known as DNA ligase is used to seal the point of splicing, thereby constructing a single DNA from the two organisms.

This single DNA is known as Recombinant DNA

The purple spots on colorless background of corn kernels observed by barbara mcclintock were the result of _______.
vitfil [10]

The purple spots on the colorless background of corn kernels observed by Barbara McClintock were the result of the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.

<h3>What are the genetic elements found in corn?</h3>
  • A transposable element is removed from one spot in the DNA and inserted into a different site in the DNA during the process of genetic transposition, which allows genes to shift their location on chromosomes.
  • The first recognized genetic instability was caused by genetic transposition.
  • The size of the tissue patch displaying the reversion phenotype increases as a reversion event happens earlier in the kernel development.
  • Barbara McClintock saw purple dots on maize kernels with an otherwise colorless background.
  • These spots were caused by the Ds components of the color gene being transposed.
  • The wild-type (purple) phenotype manifests itself in cells where Ds from the color gene "C" sequence has been lost.

Hence, Barbara McClintock discovered purple patches on the colorless backdrop of maize kernels due to the transposition of the Ds elements out of the color gene.

Elias conducted an experiment about the effects of exercise on the heart rate of teenagers. Before morning basketball practice,
padilas [110]

The <u><em>correct answer</em></u> is:

He needs to select a more representative sample.

Explanation:

Choosing students from the basketball team for the sample he uses on a study of heart rates and exercise will be a biased sample.  This is because students on the basketball team are potentially healthier than other students, which means that exercise will not have a large an effect on their heart rate as it would if they were not as healthy and not as physically fit.

In order to reduce the amount of bias, he should choose students from different groups throughout the school.
