Rama09 [41]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B.carries and allows expression of a foreign gene of interest.

Explanation:

Plasmids are the low molecular weight extrachromosomal DNA molecules that are able to replicate themselves independent of chromosomal DNA due to the presence of "ori" (origin of replication).

Plasmids serve as vectors in recombinant DNA technology as some of their genes can be replaced with the gene of interest to create recombinant plasmids.

The restriction enzymes that create the sticky ends and DNA ligases facilitate the insertion of the foreign gene into the plasmids.

The host cells are made competent to take up the recombinant plasmids. Once inside the host cell, the recombinant plasmids replicate themselves and express the gene of interest that they carry.

What are the evolutionary advantages of organisms that can photosynthesize?
AlladinOne [14]
<span>These organisms obtain energy and carbon from the physical environment and use it to produce their food. They make sugars and other compounds using sunlight as a source of energy and carbon dioxide as a carbon source. The evolutionary advantages for these organisms are the periodic renewal of atmospheric O2 for all living beings. The production of organic matter and food webs of any ecosystem. Without them, there is an extinction of all living organisms due to the non-renewal of atmospheric O2 and the excessive accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere.</span>
