A biologist wishes to take a useful gene found in pine trees and introduce it into some bacterial cells. Her experimental proced

ure is given below.

2. Use a restriction enzyme to cut open a plasmid.
3. Treat the plasmid with DNA ligase.
4. Mix the desired gene and plasmid together.
5. Introduce the plasmid into bacterial cells.

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

In carrying out these experimental procedure, the same restriction enzyme that is used to cut out the gene of interest should also be the same used for the cutting of the plasmid to generate sticky ends. Then the desired gene is inserted into the cut plasmid  then treatment with DNA ligase. Purified DNA ligase is utilized in gene cloning to join/ligate DNA molecules together forming a recombinant DNA. Thus, step 3 should be carried out after step 4.

hammer [34]

Answer:

 A) & B)

Explanation:

A) There are certain viruses that are present in both healthy and disease people.

Example: Polio virus is found in many human but it causes disesease in only 1% of human.

B) Viruses require host machinery for replication so they may not replicate in pure culture.

The postulate C is also violated, the virus may not produce disease in non-human experimental host because of inappropriate animal or vaccinated animal etc. Others exception includes, the same disease may be caused by various organisms and different organisms can also cause the same disease.
