Answer:

Restriction enzymes are DNA-cutting enzymes. Each enzyme recognizes one or a few target sequences and cuts DNA at or near those sequences.

Many restriction enzymes make staggered cuts, producing ends with single-stranded DNA overhangs. However, some produce blunt ends.

DNA ligase is a DNA-joining enzyme. If two pieces of DNA have matching ends, ligase can link them to form a single, unbroken molecule of DNA.

In DNA cloning, restriction enzymes and DNA ligase are used to insert genes and other pieces of DNA into plasmids.

azamat

One of the most poplar examples of commensalism is the relationship between cattle egrets and livestock. The cattle egret is a common species of heron that is found in most regions of the world, and is mostly seen moving along with herds of cattle. This bird moves about in pastures, and follows livestock such as cattle and horses.

A pea plant that is homozygous for yellow pods with wrinkled seeds (ggrr) is cross-bred with a pea plant that is heterozygous fo

maria [59]

The correct genotypes of the parents are ggrr for yellow pods with wrinkled seeds and GgRr for heterozygous for green pods with round seeds.
If the heterozygous individuals for both traits express have green pods and round seeds that tells us that these traits are dominant.
In the gross presented below, you can see that the offspring will have 4 different genotypes, all present in an equal percentage:
gGrR 25%
gGrr 25%
ggrR 25%
ggrr 25%
