Answer:
a rat with rabbit hemoglobin genes
Explanation:
When the genome of an organism is modified in the field of genetic engineering,by transplanting the gene(DNA) from one organisms to another,(by vectors) or alteration of the gene components,the resulting organism produced or formed is called Transgenic organism.
This process of genetic engineering makes use of recombination of genes to alter the genome of the transgenic organism.
Thus by transferring to rat ( the DNA for Hb) as the rabbit Hb,the gene( or genome) for producing Hb in tats has been modified by that of rabbit.Hence Rat is said to transgenic.
Besides animals crop plants are also genetically modified.Thus the genome of some crops are altered to resist herbicides and pesticides. Some species of rice (golden rice)have been modified to add certain vitamins to improve the nutritional values.
Genetically modified bananas as edible vaccines are another example
Answer:
When the rule of 70 applies to population, dividing 70 by the percentage of population growth should equal the time (in years) that the population needs to be double (option A)
Explanation:
The rule of 70 is useful to calculate the time in which a variable of any type can be duplicated. The calculation is done by dividing the number 70 by the percentage of growth of the variable.
<u>If the rule of 70 is applied to the population, it is possible to calculate, based on its growth rate, the time that population would need to double</u>.
If, for example, the growth rate of a population is 3 percent:
70 / 3 = 23,33
This indicates that a population, with a growth rate of 3% would need about 23,33 years to double.
Answer:
Explanation:
Curiosity is the stem from which experiments are born. Curiosity can lead to new innovations. Skepticism can help verify the accuracy of different innovations (i.e. medicine, technology, etc.)
Recessive genetic disorders result from inheriting 2 defective recessive alleles of gene ( one from each parent ). The x - chromosome holds about 10% of all human genes. Sex chromosomes are: males XY, females XX. Y-traits occure in males only. Y-disorders are rare.
Answer: Most recessive disorders are on the Autosomal recessive gene, and thus not x-linked.
