How do scientists use recombinant DNA technology to produce the drug insulin.

Biology
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
3 0
Since diabetics are not able to make enough insulin, scientists use gene engineering to make it for them. they insert the gene that codes for the production of insulin in the plasmid (circular DNA of bacteria ) to create recombinent DNA, and the bacteria will asexually reproduce, making more and more of the insulin in a short amount of time! hope this helped it took me a long time to understand the whole process in this unit!

A split-brain patient sees something in her left visual field, and must reach behind a screen and select the object from a group
choli [55]

A split-brain patient sees something in her left visual field and must go after a screen and choose the object from a group of objects. she will choose the object perfectly with her left hand.

<h3>What can a split-brain patient do if they see something in the left visual field?</h3>

The fact that split-brain patients can only accurately respond to stimuli in the left visual field with their left hand and to stimuli in the right visual field with their right hand and vocally is another important component of the conventional view.

Patients with split brains can still walk, swim, and ride a bike, which are motor abilities that need both sides of the body and were taught before the onset of their disorder. They can also pick up new skills that require them to move their fingers or hands in parallel or mirror images.

A split-brain patient must reach behind a screen and choose the object from a collection after spotting it in her left visual field. She will use her left hand to make the proper selection of the item.

Burmese pythons were released into the everglades in florida. This species population size has increased dramatically since then
luda_lava [24]

Burmese pythons is referred to an example of an Invasive species.

<h3>What is an Invasive species?</h3>

Invasive species refers to organisms which aren't native to an ecosystem but

causes harm to it.

In this scenario, we were told that Burmese pythons were released into the

everglades in Florida which means they aren't native to this ecosystem. They

also caused tremendous harm by devouring other native species which

makes Invasive species the most appropriate choice.

Recalling the Importance of Geographic Isolation
Nonamiya [84]

Explanation:

2. distribution and abundance of organisms

3. speciation of plants

4. Antarctic convergence

Geographical isolation is the physical barrier dividing the communities. It usually stops the gene flow between species in a process called allopatric speciation, contributing to reproductive isolation.

Further Explanation:

Spontaneous modifications within the genome may arise during the cycle of cell division, called mutations. These errors occur as copies of the DNA are produced within the cell; mutations may range from small modifications, called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large-scale deletions and multi-gene additions.

These mutations form variants which, within a population, become stable, resulting in the formation of separate, genetically distinct populations called species. Apart from allopatric speciation, new species arise through several other evolutionary mechanisms such as:

  • peripatric speciation— like allopatric speciation, however, one group is much smaller, making the unique characteristics more notable, or distinct
  • parapatric speciation— sub-populations in a large geographic region develop reproductive isolation by mating with those nearby, but continue to undergo reproductive isolation;
  • sympatric speciation-absence of physical barriers that impede the passage of genes; reproductive segregation by many variants of the same genes called polymorphisms
