4. DNA typing was first described in 1985 by English geneticist
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

2. Alec Jeffreys

Explanation:

'DNA fingerprinting' or DNA typing (profiling) as it is now known, was first described in 1985 by an English geneticist named Alec Jeffreys. Dr. Jeffreys found that certain regions of DNA contained DNA sequences that were repeated over and over again next to each other.

Describe the steps in transcription that require complementary base pairing.
nalin [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Transcription takes place in nucleus in the presence of the enzyme RNA polymerase.

During transcription, the code present in DNA gets transcribed into the code in mRNA.  (messenger RNA)

RNA even though is a single stranded shows base pairing.

The pre-mRNA gets created from the DNA.

DNA has two strands, one of these strands acts as coding and another non coding strand.

The DNA shows base pairing with AGTC.   [A-Adenine, G- Guanine, T-Thymine and C- Cytosine]

Whereas mRNA base pairing with AGUC.  [ U- Uracil ]

Here in mRNA, instead of thymine, uracil gets paired.

According to base pairing of coding strand/sense strand of DNA, complementary bases pairs in 5'---->3' direction in mRNA.

The mRNA created looks exactly like the non-coding strand/sense strand of DNA except instead of thymine, uracil gets replaced.

The pre-RNA undergoes splicing, capping and tailing to form mature mRNA.

The shortest length of time required to kill all test microbes at a specified temperature is the thermal death ________ whereas
Aliun [14]

Answer:

time; point

Explanation:

The complete question is as follows:

The shortest length of time required to kill all test microbes at a specified temperature is the thermal death __________ whereas the lowest temperature required to kill all microbes in a sample within 10 minutes is the thermal death _________.

time; point

window; point

point; time

time; temperature

  • When a population of bacteria gets killed due to exposure to high temperatures then this is termed as thermal death.
  • The time taken to kill a specific microbe at a specific temperature is termed as the thermal death time. The length of the time taken depends on the nature of the target microbe and hence, varies from one to another.
  • The lowest temperature that will kill all the microbes in a sample within ten minutes is defined as the thermal death point. The temperature at which the microbes get killed within 10 minutes also varies from one microbe to another.
  • Thermal death results in the disruption of the cell membranes of the microbes and hence can kill the microbes.
