Why can we manufacture insulin for humans with bacteria?

Biology

Lilit [14]4 years ago
3 0

Bacteria also carry equal number of Amino Acid. So, we can manufacture human insulin with bacteria

Explanation:

Human insulin is made in the lab inside with the help of common bacteria. Yeast is also used for making the insulin. The most common bacteria Escherichia coli is most common bacteria which is used for making insulin.

Researchers needs that human protein which is responsible for making bacteria. They make it through amino acid squeezing machine that is helpful for synthesizing the DNA. Manufacturers know exact order of insulin’s amino acid. There are twenty common amino acids which are helpful for making human insulin.

Artyom0805 [142]
<span>Basically both operate by bouncing tiny particles or waves off of objects in order to make them visible. Electrons are smaller than light photons so we can see smaller objects clearly with electron microscopes. There are disadvantages though. First, color is a function of light wave frequency so we can't see electron micrographs in color. Color can be added artificially though by computer to differentiate structures, (think photoshop). Also, we cannot see electrons so we make them visible by bouncing them off a cathode ray screen similar to a TV set or computer monitor</span>

A tissue sampler that is being used for a medical procedure is placed inside a saline solution. Unknown to the medical team, the
solong [7]

Answer: Water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the net movement of water from an area of low to high concentration of solutes through a semipermeable membrane. If none of the compartments contains solutes, then the water moves in either direction between the compartments. <u>However, if we add a solute to one of the compartments, this will affect the probability of water molecules leaving that compartment and moving into the other compartment.</u> The ability of water to move into or out of a cell is called tonicity. The tonicity of a solution is related to its osmolarity, which is the total concentration of all the solutes in the solution. A solution with low osmolarity has few solute particles per liter of solution, whereas a solution with high osmolarity has many solute particles per liter of solution. When two solutions with different osmolarities are separated by a membrane permeable to water but not permeable to solutes, water diffuses from the side with lower osmolarity to the side with higher osmolarity. So, solutions can be:

  • <u>Hypotonic</u>: The extracellular fluid has a lower osmolarity than the fluid inside the cell, it is hypotonic with respect to the cell, and the net flow of water will be into the cell.
  • <u>Hypertonic</u>: The extracellular fluid has a higher osmolarity than the cytoplasm of the cell, it is hypertonic with respect to the cell and water will flow out of the cell.
  • <u>Isotonic</u>: The extracellular fluid and the cell have the same osmolarity so there is no net movement of water.

If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink due to the difference in pressure and may even die from dehydration.

kow [346]
Obligate symbiotic fungi that form associations with plants by entering their cortical cells without invading the plant cells membrane are called endomycorrhizae and include the genus Glomus. Many plants form associations called mycorrhizae with fungi that give them access to nutrients in the soil, protecting against disease and toxicities.  In these associations the fungi are integrated into the physical structure of the root, where the fungi colonize the living root tissue during active plant growth.
