A plasmid vector has a gene for erythromycin resistance (Ery") and a gene for ampicillin resistance (Amp"). The Ery gene is cut

with restriction enzyme, and donor DNA treated with the same enzyme is added along with ligase. To find cells transformed by a vector containing the donor DNA insert, what antibiotic resistance phenotypes will you select and screen for?

Answer:

Amp resistant phenotypes

Explanation:

Insertion of the desired gene sequence within the sequence of an antibiotic resistance gene makes the transformed cells to lose the resistance against that particular antibiotic. To create a recombinant plasmid vector, the sequence of the gene for erythromycin resistance was cut with the restriction enzyme. This would cause a loss of resistance against erythromycin in the transformed cells. Since the ampicillin resistance gene was intact, the transformed gene would exhibit resistance against ampicillin. Therefore, the transformed cells would be ampicillin-resistant and erythromycin sensitive.

Leto [7]

Answer:

Option c. Only the haploid organism may also reproduce asexually.

Explanation:

It is scientifically approved that algae and fungi are able to form true asexual spores. This process of spore formation involves mitosis and resultant spore is called mito-spore which develop into new offspring.

Which of the following statements concerning viruses is true?
zysi [14]

Answer:

The second statement is correct: "The "host range" for a virus is determined by the presence or absence of particular components on the surface of a host cell that are required for the virus to attach."

Explanation:

The virus attaching itself to the host cell is the first step for it to successfully infect the host. Viruses are smaller in size than bacteria, so the first statement is incorrect. The third statement is incorrect because viruses do not have the necessary machinery to carry out protein synthesis or to generate ATP, this precisely why they seek out a host to begin with. The fourth statement is false because the virus will either have DNA or RNA, but both at the same time.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
