Oct4 is an embryonic stem cell specific transcription factor. ESCs grown in petri dishes are fed media that contain basic fibrob

last growth factor (bFGF) which keeps the ESCs undifferentiated. They examine Oct4 mRNA levels in human ESCs (hESCs), hESCs with exogenous miR-223 (micro RNA 223), hESCs with exogenous miR-223 that do not have bFGF in the media, and hESCs without bFGF but with miR-223 inhibitor.Which technique would allow for measurement of Oct4 mRNA levels

Answer:

You can use the quantitative Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction PCR (RT-qPCR) method in order to analyze the Oct4 mRNA level.  

Explanation:  

RT-PCR is the gold standard technique to analyze the expression levels of one particular messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule. In this technique, the total RNA is firstly extracted and transcribed into complementary DNA (cDNA). Subsequently, the gene sequence of interest is then amplified in a standard PCR technique that uses as control one or more genes in order to measure the relative expression levels of the target mRNA, in this case, for example, the Oct4 mRNA.

mendel realized that the principles of probability could used to blank the results of genetic crosses.
Degger [83]
Hey my friend did this one on Answer.com 
<span>
Whenever Mendel performed a cross with pea plants, he carefully categorized and counted the many offspring. Every time Mendel repeated a particular cross, obtained similar results. For example, whenever Mendel crossed two plants that were hybrid for stem height (Tt), about three fourths of the resulting plants were tall and about one fourth were short. Mendel realized that the principles of probability could be used to explain the results of genetic crosses.</span>

How are the processes of asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction different? Select three options.
Butoxors [25]
RNA has great capability as a genetic molecule; it once had to carry on hereditary processes on its own. It now seems certain that RNA was the first molecule of heredity, so it evolved all the essential methods for storing and expressing genetic information before DNA came onto the scene.
