In genetics, an insertion (also called an insertion mutation) is the addition of one or more nucleotide base pairs into a DNA sequence. This can often happen in microsatellite regions due to the DNA polymerase slipping. ... On a chromosome level, an insertion refers to the insertion of a larger sequence into a chromosome.
Answer:
In a postsynaptic cell/neuron where a depolarizing change in the membrane potential surpasses the threshold.
Explanation:
Generally, in an excitable cell, the neurotransmitter binding opens the ligand-gated channels at the synapse. Here only the entrance of the ions will not stimulate the action potential. They must exceed the threshold. Hence, an action potential will only get incited when in a postsynaptic cell/neuron, a depolarizing change in the membrane potential surpasses the threshold.
Answer:
1: the exploitation of biological processes for industrial and other purposes, especially the genetic manipulation of microorganisms for the production of antibiotics, hormones, etc.
2: Genetic engineering, the artificial manipulation, modification, and recombination of DNA or other nucleic acid molecules in order to modify an organism or population of organisms.
3: Genetically Modified Organisms
4: Selective breeding is a form of genetic modification which doesn't involve the addition of any foreign genetic material (DNA) into the organism. Rather, it is the conscious selection for desirable traits.
5:Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits (characteristics) by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together.
6:The use of genetic engineering and the creation of genetically modified crops has resulted in many benefits for the agricultural world. ... By modifying crops so that they are resistant to diseases and insects, less chemical pesticides have to be used to combat diseases and pests.
7:It is known that the main concerns about adverse effects of GM foods on health are the transfer of antibiotic resistance, toxicity and allergenicity. There are two issues from an allergic standpoint.
