Immune cells have been genetically modified to treat cancer. Stem cells, as well as other cells in tissues and organs in the hum

an body, have been genetically engineered. For example, transgenes could be developed and delivered into pancreatic cells, to express insulin. If these transgenes were inserted into the genome of pancreas, those cells could become fully functional insulin producing cells as a cure for diabetes. This type of an approach to genetic modification is known as?

Answer:

Gene therapy

Explanation:

Gene therapy is designed to introduce and infuse genetic material into cells to compensate for abnormal genes or make new proteins that are beneficial to the host. Gene therapy introduces normal copy of a gene to replace and restore damage genes that resulted from mutations, this process in turn bring back the original function of the particular protein and restores it's functioning.

How do waves interact with different materials?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Waves interact with matter in several ways. The interactions occur when waves pass from one medium to another. Besides bouncing back like an echo, waves may bend or spread out when they strike a new medium. These three ways that waves may interact with matter are called reflection, refraction, and diffraction.

Which of the following statements is correct regarding engineering maize plants with a herbicide-resistance gene using Agrobacte
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

b. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into the T-DNA region of the Ti-plasmid.

Explanation:

Ti-plasmid has the ability to introduce part of its DNA (t-DNA) into the genome of host plants. This is very important for the relationship of genetic manipulation in maize plants, with the aim of inducing a gene that promotes herbicide resistance. In addition, T-DNA has many genes that code for the production of plant growth phytohormones, which is extremely important for the cloning process to work. In this case, we can assume that the correct answer for yours is the letter B.
