<span>Scientists who wish to clone genes of interest into bacterial plasmids utilize restriction enzymes, which cuts the target and vector DNA at specific sites. then DNA ligase is used to form covalent bonds between the resulting fragments to complete the recombinant DNA molecule.

</span>

<span>Restriction enzymes (endonucleases) are enzymes which recognize specific target sequences (recognition sites) and will make a double-stranded cut in the DNA molecule at or near recognition sites.</span>

DNA ligase is an enzyme which uses ATP to link two DNA molecules if they have matching ends.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The answer is langerhans cells.

Explanation:

The first option is false. Melanocytes are cells that are responsible for the production of melanin throughout the skin of the body which affects the skin color.

The second option is also false. The Sebaceous glands are located at the end of the hairs on the skin and are responsible for producing oil throughout.

The third option is correct because langerhans cells are responsible for producing antigen throughout the skin and they are a part of the skin's immune system.

I hope this answer helps.

What additional evidence gas emerged since the publication of darwins book to support the close evolutionary relationship betwee
Alexus [3.1K]
Implications of natural selection in shaping 99.4% nonsynonymous DNA identity between humans and chimpanzees: enlarging genus Homo. we compare approximately 90 kb of coding DNA nucleotide sequence from 97 human genes to their sequenced chimpanzee counterparts and to available sequenced gorilla, orangutan, and Old World monkey counterparts, and, on a more limited basis, to mouse. The nonsynonymous changes (functionally important), like synonymous changes (functionally much less important), show chimpanzees and humans to be most closely related, sharing 99.4% identity at nonsynonymous sites and 98.4% at synonymous sites. On a time scale, the coding DNA divergencies separate the human-chimpanzee clade from the gorilla clade at between 6 and 7 million years ago and place the most recent common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees at between 5 and 6 million years ago. The evolutionary rate of coding DNA in the catarrhine clade (Old World monkey and ape, including human) is much slower than in the lineage to mouse. Among the genes examined, 30 show evidence of positive selection during descent of catarrhines. Nonsynonymous substitutions by themselves, in this subset of positively selected genes, group humans and chimpanzees closest to each other and have chimpanzees diverge about as much from the common human-chimpanzee ancestor as humans do. This functional DNA evidence supports two previously offered taxonomic proposals: family Hominidae should include all extant apes; and genus Homo should include three extant species and two subgenera, Homo (Homo) sapiens (humankind), Homo (Pan) troglodytes (common chimpanzee), and Homo (Pan) paniscus (bonobo chimpanzee).
