Biology

Answer: Prolactin

Explanation: During breastfeeding the anterior pituitary gland in the brain releases hormone prolactin as part of positive feedback mechanism. A mothers alveoli will collect nutrients from the blood and convert them into milk. Another hormone oxytocin, causes the muscles around the breast to eject milk (a let-down reflex) whilst a baby is sucking.

A sucking baby is actually a positive feedback that causes the brain to release more prolactin, which in turn causes the alveoli to convert more sugars and nutrients into milk.

tructures used in recombinant DNA technology to carry the DNA from the cells of one species to the cells of another species are
Kobotan [32]

The process of fusing two or more DNA molecules to produce a hybrid is known as recombinant DNA. Restrictions endonucleases and ligases are two classes of enzymes that enable the technique.

When a restriction endonuclease detects a particular DNA sequence, it makes cuts inside or near that sequence. The recognition sequence of a restriction enzyme will haphazardly appear on every (1–4)n bases along a random DNA chain. The equation states how many fragments ends (measured in moles) are produced when a restriction enzyme cuts DNA.

Moles of DNA ends =2x(grams of DNA)/(number of bp)(660 g/mol / bp).

The equation describes how many ends are produced when circular DNA is digested by a restriction enzyme.

Mole ends=2x(moles DNA)x number of restriction sites.

The following equation can be used to determine how many ends are produced during the digestion of a linear molecule by a restriction endonuclease.

Mole ends=2x(molesDNA)number of restriction sites +[2x(moles of DNA)].
