Answer:

Bacteriocins

Explanation:

Bacteriocins are the toxic proteins that are synthesized and released by the bacteria that are the part of the normal microbiota. These proteins have a molecular weight of 900 to 5800 Daltons. The bacterial species that release the bacteriocins are resistant against it.

Secretion of bacteriocins is an adaptive feature as these toxic proteins do not allow the growth of other strains of the same species or related species. One of the examples of bacteriocins are colicins that are released by <em>Escherichia coli</em>.

The process shown here is called ____. The resulting offspring, Dolly, would be genetically identical to the ____. This is becau
Mama L [17]

Answer:

cloning, Finn-Dorset, DNA, nucleus

Explanation:

So basically what they're doing here is they're taking the cytoplasm of a cell of the Scottish Blackface sheep (maybe a lamb?, whatever)/removing the nucleus inside that cell and instead inserting the nucleus of the Finn-Dorset sheep. Then they insert that "integrated" cell (so to speak) into a surrogate ewe so that the blastocyst can evolve and develop into Dolly (the lamb/sheep).

The process is cloning. The resulting offspring would be genetically identical to the Finn-Dorset (sheep/lamb) b/c the nucleus is coming from that sheep & the nucleus has the genetic material (DNA).  Hope ya found this helpful :)

P.S. Oh yeah, and thanks for the fifty points (hopefully)
