Restriction Enzymes
                                 These enzymes are produced by bacteria. they have the ability to cleave DNA fragment a specific recognition site. They are also known as restriction endonucleases or molecular scissors. On the basis of sub unit composition, cleavage position, sequence specificity and co-factor requirements they are classified into four groups.

In gel electrophoresis DNA fragments are separated according to size. Large DNA fragments not move very far because of their large molecular size they can not travel.
In this case hybridize mean to measure the degree of genetic similarity between two pools of DNA sequence.

Purpose of DNA probe hybridization
                                                               Hybridization probe is 100-1000 bp long strand which is radioactively labelled. It is used to determine the presence of nucleotides in DNA which is complementary to sequence in DNA probe.

Explain why a controlled (scheduled) cell cycle is essential to life
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Control of the cell cycle is necessary for different reasons. When the cell cycle are not regulated, cells could constantly undergo cell division without any form of control which will lead to cancer.

Internal regulation of the cell cycle is necessary to alert the passage of one phase to the next at a set given time. This helps in the overall metabolism of the body.
