If a centromere probe is used in FISH analysis how many spots will light up in the cells of an individual with trisomy 21?

Biology

kumpel [21]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

There will be three spots that will light up.

Explanation:

There is a research paper published which demonstrated the trisomy of 21 chromosome. They found out that there are total three spots that light up in Trisomy 21 (down's syndrome's fetus). I have attached picture from research paper and provided the reference below.

Reference

(Davies, A. F., Barber, L., Murer-Orlando, M., Bobrow, M., & Adinolfi, M. (1994). FISH detection of trisomy 21 in interphase by the simultaneous use of two differentially labelled cosmid contigs. Journal of medical genetics, 31(9), 679-685)

According to the cell theory, which structure contains cells? A)blood B)water C)carbon dioxide D)chromosome
MrRa [10]

The correct answer is option A, that is, blood.  

Cell theory in biology refers to the universally acknowledged scientific theory that living species are constructed of cells, that is, they are the basic fundamental and structural unit of all species, and that all the cells arises from the pre-existing cells. The theory is credited to Schwann and Schleiden. The three postulates of the theory are:  

1. All living species comprises of one or more cells.  

2. Cell originate from the pre-existing cells.  

3. The cells is the fundamental unit of organization and composition in organisms.

If the net force an object at rest is zero the object will remain at rest. <br> True or false
FromTheMoon [43]

True

Explanation:

If the net force on an object at rest is zero, the object will remain at rest. This is one of the postulates of newton's law of motion.

 Newton's first law of motion states that "an object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion unless if it is acted upon by an external force. "

  • If no net force acts on a body, it will forever remain at rest.
  • The force on a body causes its motion and acceleration.
  • A body will continue in uniform motion if no external force acts on it.

Which of the following is not a piece of molecular evidence supporting the endosymbiotic theory? .A. Some organelles divide by f
ElenaW [278]
The best answer is B. The endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplasts have striking similarities to bacterial cells: 1. they have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell. 2. Both organelles use their DNA for to produce many proteins and enzymes required for function. 3. They are both surrounded by a double membrane. 4. They reproduce just the way bacteria do, replicating their own DNA and directing their own division.

After performing a gram stain of a mixed culture of gram positive and gram negative cells, you shout: "oops, i forgot the iodine
zalisa [80]

Gram's staining is a differential staining technique that employs a primary stain like crystal violet and a counter stain like safranin along with the decolourizing agent alcohol and a mordant called the Gram's iodine.

Iodine is a mordant added after the primary stain. It fixes the stain by combining with it to enchance the staining ability. This forms an insoluble crystal violet iodine complex appearing purple under the microscope. These microorganisms are classified as Gram positive.

If addition of iodine is skipped, crystal violet is not fixed on the slide and the insoluble complex is not formed. The cells are decolourized by alcohol and are stained by the counter stain safranin making the Gram positive cells wrongly indentified as Gram negative due to its pink colouration. Thus, the slide will show all the cells as pink coloured Gram negative cells.
