<u>Answer</u>: c) bottleneck effect

Although the population can recover, the low genetic variation will still pose a significant risk for the long term survival of the species.

Which describes the process of cellular respiration?
True [87]

The process of cellular respiration catabolic pathway that breaks molecules into energy

<u>Explanation:</u>

Metabolic pathways consist of two distinct types: catabolic and anabolic. Catabolic deliver energy while breaking down molecules into easier molecules. Cellular respiration is one case of a catabolic pathway. During cellular respiration, sugar is held in by the cell and break to discharge energy that enables us to live.

Cellular respiration is the manner of oxidizing food particles, similar glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. The method transpires in two states:

  • glycolysis, the division of glucose to pyruvic acid
  • the entire oxidation of pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and water

Explain how human insulin can be produced using gene splicing.​
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The gene for human insulin is inserted into the gap in the plasmid. this is done through the use of restriction enzymes and ligase to insert and close the plasmid. This plasmid is now genetically modified. The genetically modified plasmid is introduced into a new bacteria or yeast cell. The more the cells divide, the more insulin is produced as bacteria divides into two identical daughter cells like in mitosis.
