Answer:

Explanation:Ribosomes is a particle found in living cells.It is a cell structure that makes proteins for the living body.Ribosomes consist of two major components: the small ribosomal subunits, which read the mRNA, and the large subunits, which join amino acids to form a polypeptide chain.

Golgi is an orgenelle that modify,sort and package of proteins for secretion . It was identified in 1897 by the Italian scientist Camillo Golgi. It is also a major site of carbohydrate synthesis.

Vesicle  is a structure within or outside a cell,it forms naturally during the processes of secretion, uptake and transport of materials within the plasma membrane.The function of vesicles are organelles, and the small enclosed sacs that comprise them can transport and store substances within a cell from one cell to another.

Mitochondria are rod-shaped organelles that can be considered the power generators of the cell, converting oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the chemical energy "currency" of the cell that powers the cell's metabolic activities.

Vacuoles are closed sacs, made of membranes with inorganic or organic molecules inside, such as enzymes. They have no set shape or size, and the cell can change them as it wants. It serves functions such as       storage, waste disposal, protection, and growth.

Lyosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes.They break down excess or worn-out cell parts. They may be used to destroy invading viruses and bacteria. One of the key organelles involved in digestion and waste removal is the lysosome.

Answer:

Epistatic interaction of the two genes

Explanation:

In epistasis, the interaction between genes contradics one another, in essence, one gene masks the  interference with the expression of another gene.  As such any time two different genes contribute and have effects to a single phenotype and their effects are not merely additive, those genes are said to be epistatic.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

The answer is; B

G0 is the stage of the cell cycle where the cells do not divide.

Cancer cells are renegade cells whose cell cycle regulation has failed, mostly due to damage in their genetic material, hence the cells proliferate unregulated.  The checkpoints in the stages of the cell cycle fail. An example is the failure of tumor suppressor genes that suppress the action of cyclins that promote the progression of the cell cycle.

Answer:

Yes, the biotechnology are associated with the genetic engineering as, the genetic engineering are the direct modification or manipulation of the organism which are using the biotechnology.

Basically, it the set of technologies which are used to modify the genetic cells including the transferring of the genes across the boundary to produced the organism. And with the help of biotechnology, new DNA are obtain by copy the genetic material by using the methods of DNA.
