The answer is A)<span> the desired gene is inserted into the genomes of the pork.
</span>
The techniques of genetic engineering are used to introduce hybrid genes for some desired substance or protein or trait into other organisms. Here, the desired gene is inserted into pork's genome and as a result, it has a <span>higher flesh-to-bone ratio</span><span>.</span>
<span>- B) is not the right answer because it is not necessary to change all the genes in the pork genome or it will be transformed into totally different organism.</span>
<span>- C) is not the right answer because the pork does not have plasmids.</span>
Answer
Macromolecules in human body
The macromolecules found in human body are:
1. Carbohydrate,
2. Proteins
3. Lipids, and
4. Nucleic acids.
Elements they common share
All these macromolecules have three elements in common which are:
1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen, and
3. Oxygen.
These elements constitute about 95% of human body.
Difference in Chemical properties
Carbohydrate is composed of glucose monomers, which may have aldehyde functional group or ketone functional group. Protein is composed of monomers called amino acids. Each amino acid has carboxylic functional group, amino group, alkyl or aryl group and hydrogen atom. Lipid is composed of fatty acids and glycerol. While nucleic acid is composed of monomer called nucleotide. Each nucleotide is composed of pentose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous group. Due to the presence of different functional groups all these macromolecules have chemical properties different from each one
The answer is through the Plasma Membrane
Each myofibril is attached at either end of the muscle fiber, when sarcomeres shorten, the muscle fiber Shortens
Mechanism :
Myofibrils are components of the animal skeletal muscles that are made up of sacromeres. They perform the muscular contraction and relaxation via the sliding filament model.
To produce motion, A cross-bridge forms between actin and the myosin heads triggering shortening of the sacromere. This shortening of the sacromere results in the contraction of the muscle fibers, which the net effect can be seen to be a shortening of the fibers.

Answer:
The colonies are carrying the resistance genes from plasmids
Explanation:
Bacteria can acquire beneficial characteristics that they didn’t have. One way for these is through plasmids, which ones are little fragments of DNA that usually contains resistance genes (for antibiotics, disinfectants, heavy metals, etc.) or other capacities, like the ability to use some substances (for example sugars).
In this specific situation, we already know that the plasmid carrying genes for tetracycline resistance and the <em>lacZ</em> gene.
A little explanation:
Tetracycline is an antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth and kills the bacteria. The bacteria can “fight” to this antibiotic if it has a resistant gene, the result is that the antibiotic can’t affect the bacteria and survive. An analogy is like a Police Officer (bacteria) that have a bulletproof vest (tetracycline-resistant gene) so the bullets (tetracycline) didn’t affect the police.
In the case of X-gal, is a compound consisting primarily in one sugar called galactose. Not all bacteria can eat galactose, they need an enzyme called β- galactosidase (comes from <em>lacZ</em> gene) that helps the bacteria “eat” the sugar (cuts the sugar in little pieces so the bacteria can eat).
Then, as the bacterial colonies can grow in the medium with tetracycline and X-gal, we know that those bacteria are carrying the resistance genes for tetracycline (does not affect the bacteria) and the <em>lacZ</em> gene (bacteria produce β- galactosidase that cuts galactose). These genes are coming from the plasmids because we already know that the plasmid carries these genes and not from the exogenous DNA.
