<span>Metabolism is the
chemical reactions that take place inside a living organism. The reaction
occurs in the cells. Digestion can be
the best association to metabolism. The metabolic system recognizes which
substances can be nutritious or poisonous. In order to complete this process,
water is needed. The chemicals are
dissolved in water and transported. Without water, no reaction can take place.</span>
Metabolism is considered
as the set of life-sustaining chemical reactions within the living organism’s
body cells.
Your answer is A: these two organisms have the same amino acid sequences, which suggests common ancestry
Three examples of marine genetically engineered organisms are:
1. AquAdvantage salmon is genetically engineered Atlantic salmon modified in order to achieve fast growth. A growth hormone-regulating gene of Pacific salmon is introduced in the genome of Atlantic salmon.
2. Grass carp was also modified by scientist in order to enhance its protection from contagious diseases. It has been modified with a transgene coding for lactoferrin (antibacterial function). So, the, survival rate of the modified Grass carp was doubled comparing to nonmodifeied fish.
3. Zebrafish is the most commonly used for modification because it has 1-cell embryo, with clear chorion so it is easy to be micro-injected with transgenic DNA.
