<span>Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) is a hormone that signals an increase in blood calcium (Ca2+) within into the bloodstream when below normal ranges. When blood calcium is within normal ranges Calcitonin is released from the thyroid to stop blood calcium from increasing thus maintaining equilibrium.</span>
The osmotic potential within the cell is greater than the outside because the solution in the cell is less concentrated. Therefore, the water from inside the cell will move outwards due to the difference in potential via the process of osmosis. The cell becomes plasmolysed, or shrinks, due to the loss of water.
Answer:
b. A second marker in the knock-out cassette, that if inserted into the genome results in cell death when plated on selective media.
Explanation:
General recombination, also known as homologous recombination, refers to the naturally occurring process of exchange of genetic material between pairs of homologous DNA sequences. This process (homologous recombination) can be exploited by genetic engineering to insert DNA segments of interest at target genes. Moreover, a cassette is a mobile DNA segment containing almost a gene and a recombination site, which is integrated into the <em>locus</em>/<em>loci</em> of interest by homologous recombination. A cassette may contain a DNA segment called 'negative marker' which prevents growth under particular conditions, while a positive marker permits growth under certain conditions. In consequence, a second marker consisting of a drug cassette may be used as a negative marker in order to evidence its insertion by inducing cell death when they are plated in selective conditions.
Answer:
There are three different types of symbiotic relationships: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.
