Answer:

DNA Ligase

Explanation:

DNA ligase is a specific type of enzyme, that facilitates the joining of DNA strands together by catalazing the formation of phophodiester bond.

Is used both DNA repair and DNA replicaation. It has extended use in molecular biology for recombinant experiments.

Answer:

DNA ligase

Explanation:

DNA ligase is an enzyme responsible for the joining of DNA strand ends. If two pieces of DNA have matching ends, ligase can link them to form a single, unbroken molecule of DNA.

What will the percentage of cytosine be in this segment of DNA?

Andrew [12]

Answer:

15%

Together, adenine and thymine compose 70% of the segment. This means that 30% of the section is composed of guanine-cytosine pairs. Since these two bases will be equal in quantity, 15% of the DNA section will be cytosine bases.

Accumulation of DDT in the testes may cause reduced fertility in males because the uncoupling of oxidative metabolism from ATP p

kow [346]

Answer: Is most likely to result from reduced ATP levels.

Explanation:

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, crystalline compound. It is an organochloride. It is used as an insecticide. It is associated with damage of biodiversity and several human and animal health complications.

In human males DDT is associated with decrease in fertility. As it results in low sperm count, negatively affects the sperm motility and synthesis.

The uncoupling process will reduce ATP synthesis in the mitochondrial cells of the sperms. This may lead to low sperm motility in the vaginal canal of the female after the insemination process. Thus this will reduce the male fertility.

Complete the flowchart to show the steps required to analyze gene activity using a microarray. preparing the cdna probe

Scilla [17]

1- Preparing the cDNA:
a- Using two different tissue samples (such as control and cancer cells), isolate mRNA.
b- For each sample, prepare complementry DNA (cDNA) from the isolated mRNA. Then fluorescent label cDNA of each sample with a different color and then mixed.

2- preparing the microarray:
a- Bind DNA fragments of different genes to microarray wells.
b- Attach ssDNA (single-stranded DNA) to microarray wells.

3- Combine the probe and the microarray samples:
Add labeled cDNA to the microarray wells.
