Answer:

The scientist can insert the DNA into bacteria

Explanation:

Bacteria are frequently used in biotechnology to make proteins scientists are interested in. If they know the gene and the sequence of the gene that makes the protein product, they can insert that gene into a vector that will cause the bacterial transcription and translation machinery to produce the protein.

Firsts scientists clone their DNA of interest into a vector, a circular piece of DNA that the bacteria will transcribe. The vector is then introduced to competent bacterial cells. (Competent means there are holes in the bacterial membrane that allow them to uptake the gene and vector).  

Once the vector is in the bacteria, it (and the gene of interest) will be transcribed and translated as it would in the chicken liver.

The cause of respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants is
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The cause of respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants is <u>lack of surfactant in the lungs because the lungs has not fully developed.</u>

Explanation:

Respiratory distress syndrome is a type of neonatal disease of respiration caused by the lack of surfactant production by the lungs.

Normally the lungs of fetus start the formation of surfactant during the third trimester of pregnancy (26 weeks through labour and delivery ). The surfactant is produced by type II alveolar cells and  is the lipoprotien complex that has surface tension lowering effect (surface active agent ) having both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties thus coats the air sacs and alveoli.

In the premature infants, the lungs are not fully developed hence the adequate amount of surfactant is missing thus resulting in Respiratory distress syndrome.
