Answer: Mammals can get entangled in the plastic, which can prevent them from swimming properly.

Plastic is a non-biodegradable waste, which is either disposed off in the water body either as urban waste or deposited by surface runoff. Being lighter in density it floats over the surface of water body deteriorating the quality of water and affecting the life of marine animals. The marine animals may avoid the cluster of plastics or may get entangled in it, which may result in the suffocating the lives of these animals and may lead to mortality.

Hence, on the basis of above description, mammals can get entangled in the plastic, which can prevent them from swimming properly is the immediate impact of floating plastic on marine mammals.

Plastic also takes up to 1000 years to biodegrade and marine life can become entangled is trash in the ocean and possibly die if they are not rescued quick enough(i want to be a marine biologist and help same marine life)

The description of a cell energy process is listed below.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

The electron transport chain

Explanation:

During the citric cycle in the matrix of the mitochondria, the NAD+ and FAD+ the metabolic cycle are reduced to NADH and FADH₂ through accepting electrons. The energy harnessed from the metabolic cycle is used to develop a proton motive force across the mitochondrion intermembrane. This potential energy is harnesses by ATP synthase to create ATPs. As the H+ ions drain back into the matrix of the mitochondria, they are used to reduce oxygen to water. In this redox reaction, the FADH₂ and NADH donate their electrons  and are recycled back to the citric cycle in their oxidized form.

Describe each step required to make a gene knock-out in mice.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

1. Designing of the target vector.

2. Insertion of the target vector into the embryonic stem cell

3. Selection of the cells

4. Injecting selected cells into the new cells

5. Breeding of mouse with a normal mouse

Explanation:

The target vectors are made by inserting markers into them. The target vector is inserted into ES cells. The vector generally recombined with the target gene and knock-out that gene. Sometimes, recombination of vectors occurs at incorrect place.

The cells survive in the presence of markers only if the target gene is incorporated with target vector. The cells with the target vector are injected into a normal developing embryo of mouse.

The developed mouse will consist of heterozygous knockout cells and its own cells. The normal mouse is bred with this chimeric mouse. The offspring of these mouse are able to transfer knock-out gene to next generation.
