Describe how advances in DNA technolgy are assisting the work of those in medical fields
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Advances in DNA technology have allowed for treatments such as gene therapy in the medical field. Nowadays, there are tools like the CRIPSR-Cas9 - harnessed from bacteria's immune system- that can nip a ‘bad’ region of DNA, which is responsible for disease, and replace it with a proper functioning bit. This is how genetic disorders are going to be addressed in the near future in mainstream medical facilities.

Recombinant DNA technology is being used to create clones of transgenic organisms that produce products of significance in the medical fields. An example is incorporating the insulin gene in bacteria genome. These clones of modified bacteria colonies secrete insulin protein that is purified and injected in diabetic persons to lower their sugar level to normal.

What are the four criteria for life?
zavuch27 [327]
Planet earth is the only known region of the universe to host life and so the basic criteria for life is based on observations made here. For an entity to be considered a living organism it must contain DNA or some other means of storing genetic information. The second criteria is that it must have some way of extracting nutrients from its surroundings. The organism must be able to respond to environmental stimulus and last but not least it must be able to reproduce.

Which formation is the result of wind erosion?
Dovator [93]

Of the following given choices;

A. glacial erratics B. U-shaped valleys C. unusually shaped rocks D. mudslides.

The answer is; C.

The wind carries soil particles is it blows. These soil particle hit on rocks in their path and over time gradually erode the rocks. An example of this type of erosion is the aeolian process. Usually the bottom o the rock is eroded more than the top. This is because the bottom is hit by larger soil particles that are heavier to carry by the wind. An example of rock formed in this process is attached in the picture below.

Why does a female’s cervix dilate prior to delivering a baby?
cluponka [151]

Effacement: The cervix – which is normally long and thick, measuring about 1-2 inches, starts to get shorter and thinner. This process is known as effacement. As the cervix gets more and more effaced, it gets shorter and shorter and “pulled up” into the lower part of the uterus.

Dilation: At the same time, the cervix softens and begins to open up – known as dilation. This widening, allows a smooth passage for the baby’s head and the rest of the body from the uterus into the vaginal canal.
