Answer:
1. Designing of the target vector.
2. Insertion of the target vector into the embryonic stem cell
3. Selection of the cells
4. Injecting selected cells into the new cells
5. Breeding of mouse with a normal mouse
Explanation:
The target vectors are made by inserting markers into them. The target vector is inserted into ES cells. The vector generally recombined with the target gene and knock-out that gene. Sometimes, recombination of vectors occurs at incorrect place.
The cells survive in the presence of markers only if the target gene is incorporated with target vector. The cells with the target vector are injected into a normal developing embryo of mouse.
The developed mouse will consist of heterozygous knockout cells and its own cells. The normal mouse is bred with this chimeric mouse. The offspring of these mouse are able to transfer knock-out gene to next generation.
Answer:
Origin of Viruses. ... Small viruses started as runaway pieces of nucleic acid that originally came from living cells such as bacteria. Large viruses were once parasitic cells inside bigger host cells. Over time, genes needed to survive and reproduce outside host cells were lost.
Answer:
INDEPENDENT VARIABLE: COCONUT JUICE
DEPENDENT VARIABLE: APPEARANCE OF GREEN SLIME
CONTROL GROUP: THE SIDE OF THE SHOWER HE SPRAYED WITH WATER
CONSTANT: SAME TIME OF MEASUREMENT, SAME SHOWER
Explanation:
- Independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated by an experimenter. In this experiment, Homer sprays a side of his shower with COCONUT JUICE and the other side with water. This means that the independent variable is the COCONUT JUICE.
- Dependent variable is the variable that responds to the independent variable. It is the variable that is measured by the experimenter. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the APPEARANCE OF GREEN SLIME on the shower.
- Control group is the group in an experiment that does not receive the experimental treatment (coconut juice). This means that the control group of this experiment is the SIDE OF THE SHOWER HE SPRAYED WITH WATER.
- Constants or controlled variable are the variables in an experiment that are kept unchanged throughout the experiment. In this case, the constant is SAME TIME OF MEASUREMENT, SAME SHOWER.
Answer: A). 2.7 million people per year
Explanation:
From 2000 to 2010 is 10 years. Change in population in 10 years = population at the beginning of 2010 minus the population at the beginning of 2000. This is:
309 million -282 million = 27 million.
Therefore average change in population person year = 27 million/10 = 2.7 million per year
