Biology
1 answer:
Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago
8 0

Thomas Hunt Morgan used fruit flies to study genetics for several reasons. First, fruit flies have a short life cycle that lasts an average of just 30 days. This means genetic traits can be studied over dozens of generations in the course of a year. This rapid reproductive cycle is impossible to match in any mammalian model, even mice or rats. Second, fruit flies produce huge numbers of offspring.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

C) are sequence-specific DNA endonucleases

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes represent a type enzyme capable of recognizing short nucleotide sequences to cut at specific restriction sites in the DNA, these sites are known as target DNA sequences. Some of the most commonly used restriction enzymes are <em>EcoRI</em>, <em>BamHI</em> and <em>HindIII</em>, isolated from <em>Escherichia coli</em>, <em>Bacillus amyloliquefaciens</em> and <em>Haemophilus influenza</em>, respectively. Restriction enzymes are endonucleases because these enzymes only cleave the phosphodiester bond within the DNA chain, conversely to exonucleases, which cleave nucleotides from the end of the polynucleotide DNA strand.
