Answer:

In order to determine the function of an unknown gene knockout technique is used. PCR based deletion strategy is used for gene knockout in the case of yeast, which is unicellular species and eukaryotic. On the other hand, in the case of a mouse, which is multicellular and eukaryotic, for gene knock out homologous recombination technique is used.  

The PCR based strategy is not appropriate for mice genes knockout, as mice are multicellular species and exhibit complex genome. While yeast constitutes some circular plasmids, known as 2 microns plasmids, which allows PCR based mutagenesis.

Sveta_85 [38]
I think the correct answer would be diarrhea. It is often a result of consumption of contaminated food and drinks. And each year, it was estimated that approximately 2 million children died due to this. It is a condition where bowel movements are frequent and is in liquid form which would lead to dehydration.

erma4kov [3.2K]
On the 12th day the Follicle Stimulating Hormone reach its peak concentration.

 The Follicle stimulating hormone stimulates the growth of the egg-bearing follicles in the ovaries. The levels of Follicle stimulating hormone vary during the menstrual cycle and are best measured at its peak or baseline level. FSH levels level vary during the menstrual cycle, reaching their peak prior to ovulation. It is best to measure FSH on day three of the period via a blood sample which is called the baseline level. It provides the most accurate predictions of ovarian reserve.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Due to their hole size.

Explanation:

Some molecules can pass directly through the phospholipid bilayer because of their small size which can easily pass through the small holes of phospholipid bilayer, while those that are too large or too charged need to pass through a membrane protein because membrane protein has a large holes through which large molecules can easily pass through the semi-permeable membrane of the cell by active or passive transport.
