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

Engineering
1 answer:
MaRussiya [10]3 years ago
6 0

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.

Explicar el funcionamiento de un multímetro analógico.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Un multímetro analógico funciona como un medidor de bobina móvil de imán permanente (PMMC) para tomar mediciones eléctricas

Explanation:

El multímetro analógico es un medidor o galvanómetro D'Arsonval que funciona según el principio de los medidores de bobina móvil de imán permanente (PMMC)

Un multímetro analógico está formado por un puntero de aguja unido a una bobina móvil colocada entre el polo norte y sur de un imán permanente dispuesto de tal manera que, cuando una corriente eléctrica fluye a través de la bobina, genera una fuerza de campo magnético que interactúa con el imán fuerza de campo de los imanes permanentes que hace que la bobina se mueva junto con el puntero de la aguja sobre un dial graduado

Para controlar el movimiento del puntero de la aguja, de modo que el par requerido para producir una cantidad de movimiento por corriente detectada por el multímetro, se colocan dos resortes a través de la bobina para proporcionar resistencia al movimiento en ambas direcciones y para permitir la calibración del multímetro analógico.

A harmonic oscillator with spring constant, k, and mass, m, loses 3 quanta of energy, leading to the emission of a photon.
Monica [59]

Answer: (a). E = 3.1656×10³⁴ √k/m  

(b). f = 9.246 × 10¹² Hz

(c). Infrared region.

Explanation:

From Quantum Theory,

The energy of a proton is proportional to the frequency, from the equation;

E = hf

where E = energy in joules

h = planck's constant i.e. 6.626*10³⁴ Js

f = frequency

(a). from E = hf = 1 quanta

    f = ω/2π

where ω = √k/m

consider 3 quanta of energy is lost;

E = 3hf = 3h/2π × √k/m

E = (3×6.626×10³⁴ / 2π) × √k/m

E = 3.1656×10³⁴ √k/m    

(b). given from the question that K = 15 N/m

and mass M = 4 × 10⁻²⁶ kg

To get the frequency of the emitted photon,

Ephoton =hf = 3h/2π × √k/m (h cancels out)

f = 3h/2π × √k/m

f =  3h/2π × (√15 / 4 × 10⁻²⁶ )

f = 9.246 × 10¹² Hz

(c). The region of electromagnetic spectrum, the photon belongs to is the Infrared Spectrum because the frequency ranges from about 3 GHz to  400 THz in the electromagnetic spectrum.

A heat recovery system​ (HRS) is used to conserve heat from the surroundings and supply it to the Mars Rover. The HRS fluid loop
blagie [28]

Answer:

0.304 L of Freon is needed

Explanation:

Q = mCT

Q is quantity of energy that must be removed = 47 BTU = 47×1055.06 = 49587.82 J

C is specific heat of Freon = 74 J/mol.K = 74 J/mol.K × 1 mol/120 g = 0.617 J/g.K

T is temperature in the area of Mars = 189 K

m = Q/CT = 49587.82/(0.617×189) = 452.23 g = 452.24/1000 = 0.45223 kg

Density of Freon = specific gravity of Freon × density of water = 1.49 × 1000 kg/m^3 = 1490 kg/m^3

Volume of Freon = mass/density = 0.45223/1490 = 0.000304 m^3 = 0.000304×1000 = 0.304 L

Why is concrete on its own not a good material to use
Inga [223]

Answer:

It has poor tensile strength despite having high compressive strength

Explanation:

Concrete exhibits high compressive strength when used. However, it has very low compressive strength. This is the reason why concrete is normally combined with steel to make a composite building material called reinforced concrete. The steel reinforces concrete hence increasing the tensile strength in RC buildings. The end composite is durable and fireproof. Generally, the main reason why concrete is not use on its own is due to its poor tensile strength.

Discuss the difference between the observed and calculated values. Is this error? If yes, what is the source?
Scrat [10]

Answer and Explanation:

In any experiment, the observed values are the actual values obtained in any experiment.

The calculated values are the values that are measured by using the observed values in a formula.

The observed values are primary values whereas the calculated values are the secondary values as calaculations are made using observed values.

Yes, if the observed values are of low accuracy.

The values should be recorded with proper care and attention in order to avoid any error.
