Explain the steps that the scientists probably would have used to restore sight to the dogs

Biology
1 answer:
sasho [114]3 years ago
3 0
Scientists used gene therapy to restore the sight of the dogs who suffer from inherited blindness.

Inherited blindness is identified as retinitis pigmentosa. It is the <span>progressive loss of both the rods and the cones photoreceptors in the retina from the edge of the retina to the centre, leading to worsening tunnel vision caused by the loss of peripheral sight

</span>A human gene that enabled cells in the retina to become sensitive to light is added into the retina cells. The scientists then inject a chemical called "photoswitch" in the eye. It attaches itself to the <span>ion channel protein and enables the full conversion of light into an electrical signal relayed to the brain.</span>

Which description best explain the role of dna in differentiation of the cell within
exis [7]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is C) Cells do not use the same sections of DNA in the same proportions, at the same time in development, which leads to differentiation.</em>

Explanation:

All the cells in an organisms body comprise of the same DNA. However, each cell is specialized to perform a different function because a part of the DNA which is active in one cell might not be active in the other cells. In this way, cell differentiation occurs. The genes which are being transcribed in one cell type may be completely repressed in the other cell type. As a result, variations occur in the structure and function of different cells.

When frying an egg, the protein albumin denatures and maintains only its ________ structure?
S_A_V [24]
When frying an egg, the protein albumin denatures and maintains only its primary structure. The simplest level of protein structure is the primary structure which is simply the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain. The order of a protein is resolute by the DNA of the gene that encrypts the protein or that encodes a portion of the protein, for multi-subunit proteins. An alteration in the DNA of the gene sequence may principal to an alteration in the amino acid order of the protein. Even altering just one amino acid in a sequence of a protein can affect the protein general assembly and purpose.

An energy-rich organic compound needed by organisms is
ira [324]

Answer;

-Glucose

An energy-rich organic compound needed by organisms is glucose

Explanation;

-Glucose is a simple sugar or carbohydrate that is used by the cell during cellular respiration to generate energy in the form ATP, which is the usable form of energy by the cells.

-Carbohydrates or sugars are energy-rich organic compounds made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Plant cells store excess energy in molecules of starch, while animals store excess energy in molecules of glycogen.
