What do scientists hope to accomplish using recombinant DNA?

Biology

Ber [7]2 years ago

The correct answer is: Replacement of defective genes with normal genes

Recombinant DNA molecules are made in laboratory by the methods of genetic recombination such as molecular cloning. The aim of these methods is to bring together genetic material from different sources, creating “combinations” that usually couldn’t be found in the genome. The process of recombination is possible because, DNA molecules from all organisms share the same chemical structure (nucleotides are same among different species, difference is only in the nucleotide sequence).

In which element and a fragmented landscape would you expect to find the largest number of species
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A corridor that is attached or connected to a large patch.

Explanation:

Corridors in biology can either be within an aquatic or terrestrial environment. The movement of animals is mostly between these two corridors, or corridors within the main ones. Because corridors are very long and continuous strips of land or water with much vegetation or reefs, there are numerous amounts of species. These corridors are meant to aid movement of animals, so it is only natural that there would be a large amount of them at the end of a corridor.

Would you expect a region of the body with greater sensory acuity to have cutaneous receptors with large receptive fields, or sm
AfilCa [17]

Yes! a region of the body with greater sensory acuity to have cutaneous receptors with large receptive fields, or small receptive fields.

The sensory receptor located in the skin is known as a cutaneous receptor ( the dermis or epidermis). The somatosensory system includes them. Mechanoreceptors (pressure or distortion), nociceptors (pain), and thermoreceptors are cutaneous receptors (temperature). The lowest spatial resolution is found in the thigh and calf area, whereas the fingertips have the highest spatial resolution (and the smallest receptive fields) (and largest receptive fields). Two-point discrimination threshold measurements can be used to assess the spatial resolution in response to light touch stimuli.

small group of 100 people decide to isolate themselves from the world and move to a small and remote deserted island. Out of thi
irina [24]

Answer:

Frequency of p = 0.684

Frequency of p = 0.316

Number of individuals with homozygous dominant (AA) = 47

Number of individuals with heterozygous (Aa)= 43

Number of individuals with homozygous recessive (aa) = 10

Explanation:

Out of 100 people, 10 have albino skin (aa)

So, the frequency of homozygous recessive individuals (q^{2}) is \frac{10}{100} = 0.1

Now, q will be

= \sqrt{q^{2} } = \sqrt{0.1} \\= 0.316

As per Hardy Weinberg's equation -

p + q = 1

Substituting the value of q in above equation, we get -

p + 0.316 = 1p = 1 -0.316\\p = 0.684

Now the frequency of homozygous dominant (AA) will be

p^{2} = 0.684^{2} \\= 0.467

Hence, out of 100 people 0.467 * 100 = 46.7 or 47 people are homozygous dominant (AA)

Like wise out of 100 people 0.1 * 100 = 10 people are homozygous recessive (aa)

As per As per Hardy Weinberg's equation-

p^{2} + q^{2} + 2pq = 1\\

Substituting the values in above equation, we get -

0.467 + 0.316 + 2pq = 1\\2pq = 1 -( 0.467+ 0.1)\\2pq = 0.433

So, out of 100 people 0.433 * 100 = 43.3 or 43 people are heterozygous (Aa)

What it mean for something to be hypertonic?
Nady [450]
Hypertonic is where the solution has a lower water potential than the other side of the membrane. It has less water molecules and osmosis may occur under that in the presence of semi permeable membrane. Where water will flow from a higher water potential to lower water potential region
