<h2>The correct sequence is: 4>2>3>5>1.</h2>

Explanation:

  • The given question shows the sequence in which silk encoding gene from spider can be expressed in yeast in order to produce Recombinant Silk.
  • Originally, silk can be obtained from spider. But for the commercial production and meeting the high demand of silk it is not economical to depend on spider to produce silk as they not only take long time to produce silk them but also they have a longer life-cycle and longer generation time as a result of which the quantity of silk obtained by spider per generation is very low. Also, spiders require specialized habitat and complex nutrient for their survival.
  • Hence, yeast, an unicellular eukaryote, which has a shorter generation time and simple nutrient requirement for its survival, can be used for the commercial production of silk.
  • For this, initially a yeast gene which is constitutively expressed in yeast is selected and the coding region of this gene is removed with the help of enzymes, keeping the regulatory sequences like the promoter, enhancer, terminator, etc, intact in the 5' and 3' region of the gene.
  • A constitutive gene is the one which is expressed continuously at large amounts. This will result in the increased synthesis of the recombinant silk protein.
  • Next, the coding sequence of the gene encoding for silk protein which is obtained from the spider is joined with the help of enzymes to the regulatory gene sequences of the yeast which was obtained in the first step.
  • Next, this recombinant gene comprising of the yeast regulatory sequence and the coding region of the gene encoding for silk obtained from spider is inserted into the yeast cells.
  • Next, the yeast cells are allowed to express the silk coding gene by the process of transciption and translation utilizing the yeast specific RNA (Ribonucleic acid) polymerase (recognizes the yeast-specific promoter and enhancer in the recombinant gene) and yeast-specific ribosome, respectively.
  • The recombinant silk protein produced in the yeast can then be subjected to purification.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

If both of the parents have a recessive trait that decides fur color, then there is a 25% chance that the offspring will receive the recessive traits from each parent and will not receive either of the dominant traits.

Lipid-soluble signaling molecules, such as testosterone, cross the membranes of all cells but affect only target cells because
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

option B) intracellular receptors are present only in target cells.

Explanation:

The cell membrane or plasma membrane is composed of phospholipids and thus hydrophobic in nature, this allows the lipid soluble signaling molecules to cross the membrane. The cell membrane of all cells consist of phospholipids thus hydrophobicity of each cell membrane allows lipid soluble signaling molecules to pass through the plasma membrane. The testosterone cross the membranes of all cells but affect only target cells because of intracellular recepters that are located in target cell. The binding of signaling molecules to recepter generates a response. Thus, option B is correct.

*1). digestive bacteria helps our body to break down, digest, and absorb the food that you take in.
*2). there are certain types of bacteria in your endocrine system which help you to fight off various diseases, sicknesses, as well as get immuned to them faster.
*3). adding on to the endocrine system, many bacteria help the realease of hormones and other things that take place in glands.  HOPE THAT HELPS!!! can you please pick my answer as brainliest!!??? thank you!!!!
