Many genetic technologies involve the transferring of genes from one organism to another. For example, a gene in human DNA codes

for the production of insulin, an important protein. This gene has been transferred to bacterial DNA, where it remains functional. The bacteria produce human insulin that can be harvested and given to people who lack sufficient insulin supplies. Which property of molecular genetics is most useful for explaining the success of the technology used to manufacture insulin?

Answer:

The universality of genetic code.

Explanation:

The DNA is a molecule made up from 4 different nucleotides (A, T, C or G). The sequence in which these nucleotides are ordered constitute a code that gives a cell instructions to produce a specific protein. This is called the genetic code.

Every three nucleotides code for a specific amino acid. For example, ACG codes for Arginine, CUC codes for Proline, and so on.

The genetic code is universal. This means that in all living organisms, a particular sequence of three nucleotides will code for the same amino acid. This property guarantees that the human gene that codes for human insulin will also code for human insulin in bacteria.

Explanation:

The answer is F...because h2o molecules are heavier than the atmosphere it surrounds. Therefore, gravity takes over. plse correct me if wrong.

because of gravity, h2o is directed down. That's how plants survive, Remember, ..what goes up, must go down...per " isaac newton."

The correct answer is C. Gardeners choose which plants they let reproduced based on the plant traits.

Explanation:

In general, selective breeding involves the intervention of humans in the reproduction of species, this includes mainly plant and animal species. Moreover, in selective breeding, humans choose which specific species or individuals reproduce to favor certain traits. For example, a farmer might allow only the biggest cows to reproduce because this will lead to bigger calves. In this context, the option that shows selective breeding is C because this shows the intervention of humans in reproduction by selecting the individuals that will reproduce.
