Why is it necessary to re-circularize a plasmid prior to transformation into cells?

Biology
1 answer:
Anuta_ua [19.1K]3 years ago
8 0
It is necessary to use a plasmid instead of linear DNA in transformation (into bacteria) because some bacteria such as E. coli will recognize linear DNA as invading bacteriophage DNA and degrade it instead of being taken up. The bacteria that are naturally competent can actually use linear DNA by degrading one strand and adding the other strand to their genomic DNA.

Anton [14]

Answer:

b. form of a gene

Explanation:

An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome. Genotypes are described as homozygous if there are two identical alleles at a particular locus and as heterozygous if the two alleles differ.

Based on the graph above, how well will the enzyme perform as a catalyst when placed in a pH 7 solution, such as water?
mrs_skeptik [129]
The correct answer is "<span>It will perform less than optimally unless the pH was increased."

This is because the curve on the graph shows pH versus reaction rate. If we follow the x-axis (the bottom one) to a pH of 7, it is at an extremely low reaction rate compared to other points of the graph. If we continue along, we see that the reaction rate increases as the pH increases. Therefore, the enzyme will perform less than optimally unless the pH is increased.

Hope this helps, and hope I'm the brainiest! :)</span>
