IV only

Plate IV will only have the trangenic E Coli hence will have the highest percentage of bacteria that are expected to produce insulin.

Explanation:

The transgenic <em>E. coli </em>will have taken up the plasmid with the insulin and <em>amp</em> genes hence they will be able to survive and grow in amplicilin antibiotic.

In plate IV, the wild type <em>E. coli</em> will be eliminated by the antibiotic (because they do not have the gene for resistance) hence providing no competition for resources, in the agar, with the transgenic <em>E coli</em>. This will ensure optimal growth for the transgenic <em>E coli</em> even, than in plate III, producing highest percentage of insulin.

An enzyme was isolated from digestive juices taken from the small intestine. an experiment was set up to test the ability of the
Sergio039 [100]
1. Our results showed that test tube B contained end products of protein digestion, meaning that the isolated enzyme has the ability to break down protein. The end products of protein digestion include small polypeptides, dipeptides, and amino acids. In general, test tube B will contain the building blocks of proteins, which are the amino acids.

2. The two test tubes were placed in a hot water bath at 37oC. This is because the enzyme studied is a human enzyme and it works best at the human body temperature, which is approximately 37oC.
Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means that they accelerate chemical reactions. As a result, an enzyme's activity is greatly affected by temperature. Every enzyme, depending on each function and origin, has a specific range of ideal temperature conditions. If the temperature rises above the maximum accepted, then the enzyme denatures and loses its structure.

3. If the enzyme studied was added in a tube containing starch instead of proteins, then nothing would happen. This is because the enzymes are highly specialized and have very specific actions. It has been proved that this enzyme's activity involves the digestion of proteins.
Starch is a polysaccharide produced by plants, this means that starch is a carbohydrate. Given that starch is not a protein, it will not be digested by the enzyme. An enzyme digesting proteins, will not have any effect on carbohydrates.

4. The smaller molecules which are the result of the digestion happening in the digestive system are absorbed by the human body. More specifically, the products of protein digestion are absorbed by the intestine and then transported into the bloodstream. From the blood, they are then absorbed by other tissues.
After they are absorbed, they are used to build muscles or other compounds which can produce energy.

How Do Different Liquids Affect Plant Growth?
Leona [35]
It all depends on what kind of liquid it is, if you were to use water, the plant would be fine, but if you were to give it, say, car gas, the plant would most likely die..... I hope this helped!
