Is genetic engineering a good idea? I need details in the answers :) 20 points answer. $$$$$

Well, genetic engineering can be a good idea, but I think it is dangerous. The reason why I believe this is because scientists bred killer bees and honeybees and created another dangerous bee thinking that they would be mellow. Genetic engineering can be very dangerous and eventually might even cause serious injury or even death.
Hope this Helped! :) please mark me Brainiest! :)

I think that genetic engineering is a good idea because it helps cure deseases that people cant cure, and could possibly cure cancer some day.
Hope my oppinion helped!

Explain the difference between a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus.

Prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where Eukaryotic stores their genetic information.

A population of deer includes deer with white spots and deer with brown spots. A forest fire kills half the deer with white spot

Kaylis [27]

This should be an example of genetic drift.

The brown spotted deer would spread their genes more than the white spotted ones which would eventually lead to them completely overpowering genetically the white deer in future generations.

How does natural selection lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria?

choli [55]

Answer:

Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.

Survival of the Fittest (Natural Selection):

When bacteria are initially exposed to an antibiotic, those most susceptible to the antibiotic will die quickly, leaving any surviving bacteria to pass on their resistant features to succeeding generations.

1. What are Chargaff's rules?

kotegsom [21]

1)Chargaff's rules state that DNA from any cell of any organisms should have a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine should be equal to cytosine and the amount of adenine should be equal to thymine. This pattern is found in both strands of the DNA.

2)DNA structure

DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determines DNA's instructions, or genetic code.

3)A nucleotide consists of three things: A nitrogenous base, which can be either adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine (in the case of RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil). A five-carbon sugar, called deoxyribose because it is lacking an oxygen group on one of its carbons. One or more phosphate groups.

4)DNA replication is said to be semi-conservative because of this process of replication, where the resulting double helix is composed of both an old strand and a new strand. ... Semiconservative replication would produce two copies that each contained one of the original strands and one new strand.

5)The diagram has show in above.

6)complementary base pairing is necessary because the double helix shape would not be the same if not. Doubles would only pair with doubles and the singles to singles.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
