Below are steps performed to make an E. coli bacteria that can make human insulin protein for the health care market. List these

steps in their proper order.
a. Use heat shock or electroporation to get the recombinant human insulin gene to go into a living E. coli cell.
b. Grow the E. coli in fermentation culture, extract and sell Humulin.
c. Modify the human gene and give it a promoter that will be turned on in E. coli cells.
d. Extract the DNA from a human who does not have diabetes

Answer:

The following are the steps for making the human insulin protein for the health care market:  

1. Obtain the DNA from a human being who does not have diabetes.  

2. Modify the human gene, and provide it a promoter, which will get turn on when placed within the E.coli cell.  

3. Separate and make copies of the gene encrypting the insulin protein.  

4. Application of electroporation or heat shock method in order to administer the human insulin gene within the living E.coli cell.  

5. Development and growth of E.coli in the fermentation culture, and then extract and sell the humulin in the market.

3. What sedimentary rock is made up of pieces
ELEN [110]

<u>Coquina</u> is the sedimentary rock is made up of pieces  of shells.

Two types of sedimentary rock: Clastic and chemical sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

Coquina is the sedimentary rock formed by fragments or pieces of shells of marine animals like mollusks, brachiopods, trilobites and certain invertebrates.

The shells of marine animals are fragmented due to abrasion and mechanical degradation and sorting by the wave action and chemicals present in the sea water and gets transported which then sediments to form rock structures called coquina. The shells mostly contain calcium carbonate.

Chalk is the sedimentary rock formed b the fossil shells fragmented from foraminifers. This is a more powdery type of limestone.

Depending upon the type of sedimentation, sedimentary rocks are of three types:

Clastic – Made from sedimentation of clastic (pieces from broken rocks) through the processes of mechanical weathering and lithification (cementing and compacting). sandstone, conglomerate

Chemical – Made from evaporation of water and precipitation of materials which were previously dissolved in a solution. Example: Rock salt, dolomite

Organic – Repeated accumulation and sedimentation of organic matter or remains from plant and animal sources like bones (calcium deposits). Example: coal.
