Answer:

CRISPR Used To Edit Genes Inside A Patient With A Rare Form Of Blindness

and what CRISPR is is s a family of DNA sequences found in the genomes of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and archaea.[2] These sequences are derived from DNA fragments of bacteriophages that had previously infected the prokaryote. They are used to detect and destroy DNA from similar bacteriophages during subsequent infections. Hence these sequences play a key role in the antiviral (i.e. anti-phage) defense system of prokaryotes.[2]

Diagram of the CRISPR prokaryotic antiviral defense mechanism[3]

The CRISPR-Cas system is a prokaryotic immune system that confers resistance to foreign genetic elements such as those present within plasmids and phages[4][5][6] and provides a form of acquired immunity. RNA harboring the spacer sequence helps Cas (CRISPR-associated) proteins recognize and cut foreign pathogenic DNA. Other RNA-guided Cas proteins cut foreign RNA.[7] CRISPR are found in approximately 50% of sequenced bacterial genomes and nearly 90% of sequenced archaea.

Identify the characteristics of a cell. Check all that apply. measures 3-500 micrometers infects all forms of living cells grows
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

A cell is defined as the structural and functional unit of an organism.

The average size of the prokaryotic cell lies between 0.1 to 10 micrometers whereas the average size of the eukaryotic cell is approximately 25 micrometers.

Four things are found in all the cells: genetic material (either DNA or RNA), cell membrane, cytoplasm, and the ribosome.

All the living cells grow and reproduce (sexually or asexually) and have the ability to respond to stimuli.

Thus, characteristics of a cell may include: cell grows and reproduces, responds to stimuli, contains DNA or RNA, not both , and contains a cell membrane.

An animal cell (left) and a plant cell (right) are shown. mc010-1.jpg Which two cell parts are most likely found in both types o
Oksanka [162]
The answer is vacuole and centriole lysosome. An animal cell contains all 3.

An animal cell does not have chloroplasts and a cell wall(a plant has those things). A plant uses chloroplasts (that contains chlorophyll) for photosynthesis. A cell wall is to give the plant a rigid shape(that's why most plant cells look rectangular while animal cells look circular).
Hope this helps :)

What is translation in biology
lara31 [8.8K]

Translation is the process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis. The genetic code describes the relationship between the sequence of base pairs in a gene and the corresponding amino acid sequence that it encodes.
