During genetic engineering, how do Restriction enzymes know what base pairs to act on?

Engineering

MaRussiya [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct/closest option is b

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are enzymes (endonucleases) that cut short DNA strands at specific sites. Hence, each restriction enzyme has it's own specific site (between two bases) it cuts at. There are two types of end that can be produced by this cut; the blunt end and the sticky end.

A restriction enzyme recognizes (palindromic sequence) and cut in it's own specific end.

For example, if a restriction enzyme cuts between a guanine (G) and an adenine (A), and it cuts a palindromic double stranded DNA in the manner below, it produces a sticky end.

G║AATTC

CTTAA║G

And if a restriction enzyme cuts between guanine (G) and cytosine (C) in the manner below, it produces a blunt end.

GGG║CCC

CCC║GGG

Hence, from the question, restriction enzymes (although chosen by the scientist based on desired sequence to be cut) recognize the sticky or blunt ends itself.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

(a) 561.12 W/ m² (b) 196.39 MW

Explanation:

Solution

(a) Determine the energy and power of the wave per unit area

The energy per unit are of the wave is defined as:

E = 1 /16ρgH²

= 1/16 * 1025 kg/ m3* 9.81 m/s² * (2.5 m )²

=3927. 83 J/m²

Thus,

The power of the wave per unit area is,

P = E/ t

= 3927. 83 J/m² / 7 s = 561.12 W/ m²

(b) The average and work power output of a wave power plant

W = E * л * A

= 3927. 83 J/m² * 0.35 * 1 *10^6 m²

= 1374.74 MJ

Then,

The power produced by the wave for one km²

P = P * л * A

= 5612.12 W/m² * 0.35 * 1* 10^6 m²

=196.39 MW

The production process of rods from machine "A" yields specimen with the following specs. Mean: µ(LA)=20.00mm, STD: s(LA)=0.50mm
Oxana [17]

Answer: the standard deviation STD of machine B is s (Lb) = 0.4557

Explanation:

from the given data, machine A and machine B produce half of the rods

Lt = 0.5La + 0.5Lb

so

s² (Lt) = 0.5²s²(La) + 0.5²s²(Lb) + 0.5²(2)Cov (La, Lb)

but Cov (La, Lb) = Corr(La, Lb) s(La) s(Lb) = 0.4s (La) s(Lb)

so we substitute

s²(Lt) = 0.25s² (La) + 0.25s² (Lb) + 0.4s (La) s(Lb)

0.4² = 0.25 (0.5²) + 0.25s² (Lb) + (0.5)0.4(0.5) s(Lb)

0.64 = 0.25 + s²(Lb) + 0.4s(Lb)

s²(Lb) + 0.4s(Lb) - 0.39 = 0

s(Lb) = { -0.4 ± √(0.16 + (4*0.39)) } / 2

s (Lb) = 0.4557

therefore the standard deviation STD of machine B is s (Lb) = 0.4557
