Explanation:

A proto-oncogene is a<em> normal gene that usually can stimulate growth and differentiation but if it mutates can become an oncogene and cause cancer</em>. In order to test this gene, you can <em>activate it by promoting its mutation with a DNA amplification (like the one you did in the question) or a chromosomal translocation,</em> then you can observe it in a culture <em>if there's cell transformation you can confirm your hypothesis.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Which organism receives the least amount of energy from the producer?
shepuryov [24]
The owl would have the least amount of energy from the producer. The higher the organism is on the food pyramid, the less energy it will receive from the producer. For example, if grass is a producer, it has the most energy. Then, if a bunny eats the grass, it takes a part of the grass’s energy but does not take all of the energy. Then, a wolf eats the bunny. The wolf gets a part of the bunny’s energy but not all. The wolf has received the least amount of energy from the grass.
