Ans. The correct word to be filled in the blank is 'transgenic.'

Insulin-dependent diabetes or type 1 diabetes  is a metabolic disorder, characterized by insulin deficiency. It results in an increased level of blood glucose as their is no or very little insulin in blood to regulate the blood sugar level.

It can be treated by taking recombinant insulin, made from recombinant DNA technology. The recombinant insulin is synthesized artificially in microbes, by introducing insulin coding human gene in there genetic material. These recombinant microbes with foreign DNA molecule (transgene) are known as 'transgenic microbes.'

What does it mean when dna is openly floating around the cytosol
vaieri [72.5K]

Most, maybe all, bacteria have their genome DNA tethered to their cell membranes, so it is in the cytoplasm but its not really floating around. Plasmids in bacteria however are free floating. This is why it's so easy to isolate plasmids from bacteria with centrifugation after lysing.

Organization is one of the characteristics of life. Explain how your observations under the magnifying glass support this idea.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

All living things are made up of cells. Cells are building blocks of life. Cells are the simplest level of organization. The structure of multicellular organisms are made up of many parts that are required for survival of organisms. The level of organization in multicellular organisms includes: cells, tissues, organs and organ system. The organization is necessary for the body of the organisms to function properly as a characteristic feature of living being.

Magnifying glass is a convex lens that is fitted in a microscope can be used to magnify the image of object under observation. A magnifying glass in a microscope can be used to magnify minute cells and small living creatures. All cells aggregate to form tissues. It can be used to see the arrangement of cells in a tissue specimen and small organelles like chloroplast, mitochondria, nucleus and others.

Therefore, observations under the magnifying glass support  the idea of organization is one of the characteristics of life.
