The answer is an enzyme.

When cutting DNA, scientist uses enzymes called restriction enzymes. These enzymes are naturally produced in bacteria as a defense against phages. So, enzymes cut DNA of the phages and thus inactivate it. Also, these enzymes do not cat DNA randomly, but on specific sites. This characteristic of restriction enzymes is used for some molecular biology techniques. All species' DNA contains target sites of restriction enzymes, but most organisms do not have restriction enzymes. Therefore, restriction enzymes are suitable for different techniques.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Breathing heavily after you have finished running a race is your body way of repaying an oxygen debt.

Explanation:

Any kind of exercise that is performed makes our muscles work harder. As a result, more calories get burned by these muscles. To burn the extra calories, more supply of oxygen is required by the muscles. As you exercise harder, the breathing increases and become heavier to bring more oxygen to the lungs. From the lungs, the oxygen is carried to the muscles which are burning more calories.

You breathe heavily at the end of a race to get enough supply of oxygen.
