How do scientists use recombinant DNA technology to produce the drug insulin?

Biology
1 answer:
Papessa [141]3 years ago

First, scientists isolate the gene that controls insulin production. Then, they take that gene and insert into a plasmid (a circular ring of DNA found in bacteria). When the bacterium with that plasmid reproduces, it carries that insulin-producing gene. Then they can either mass-reproduce that bacteria or transfer the plasmid to another rapidly-reproducing bacteria. After some time, they harvest the insulin from the bacteria.

Hey!
8= B : adenine with thymine , guanine with cytosine.

9= False : its not single , *dual* helical structure.

10= Every humans' DNA is different but its as similar as our relatives' DNAs as far as i know so its False.

11 = The two backbones of the DNA molecule consists a deoxyribose sugar ^with 5 carbone^ and a phosphate so the correct answer is B

12= Procaryotes' Genomes are simpler- structured than eukaryotes' so procayotes DNA is 1/1000 of eukaryotes.I couldnt translate the options correctly (im not native sorry) but i think its B according to my knowledge of that XD

13= the amount of adenine, guanine, thymime and cytosine must be same so the correct option is %40as well.

Hope it helps!!!

Ripping up a piece of paper is physical change or chemical change?
eduard
Hello there!

Ripping up a peice of paper is considered physical change.

Physical change means its still the same, it just changed shape.

Chemical change cannot be changed back.

For ex) Burning paper.

Its a chemical change because it cant be undone

hope this helps!
