Genetics can improve the agricultural production of food by enhancing the quality of seeds used. The recombinant DNA technology helps to obtain the hybrid seeds, which contains the desired characters that we want. The bacterial resistant gene can be obtained which helps to protect the plant from bacterial infection. The use of high- variety seeds to increase the nutritive value of seeds. Genetics can help to improve the number of plants, improve the quality of seeds, increasing the nutritive value of plants, etc.

The bottom line difference between passive and active transport through a cell membrane’s is

Ahat [919]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Active transport uses energy and passive transport does not

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

<u>Passive transport occurs when materials move across cell membranes without using cell energy (ATP). </u> Examples of passive transport include; diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis. It moves small molecules like water, oxygen, carbon dioxide and glucose.
<em><u>Active transport on the other hand involves the movement of materials across the cell membrane that requires the use of cell energy (ATP)</u></em>.
In other words the difference between active transport and passive transport is that passive Transport moves ions from high concentration to low, using no metabolic energy while active Transport moves ions from low concentration to high, using metabolic energy in the form of ATP.

Which method(s) can be used to join double-stranded breaks in DNA? (choose all that apply)

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Option (a) and (d).

Explanation:

The breaks in DNA molecule may occur due to replication error and oxidizing agent. The double-stranded breaks in DNA can be corrected by Homologous end joining and non homologous end joining.

Homologous end joining is used to repair the DNA present in G2 nad S phases of the cell cycle. The homologous sequences of DNA is used to repair the DNA. Non homologous end joining occurs in the cell present at G0 and G1 phase of the cell cycle. The DNA broken ends are juxtaposed and later rejoin together by DNA ligase.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a) and (d).
