The name comes from a latin word meaning to glue or bind together. DNA ligase catalyses the joining of DNA fragments (usually those produced by restriction enzymes). Thus different genes can be put into vectors and moved into other hosts.

To test the hypothesis that a particular plant synthesizes storage lipids by using glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) from photosy
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Radiolabeled carbon atom in CO2

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants fix the atmospheric CO2 into glucose. The process includes carbon fixation during which RuBisCo enzyme catalyzes the reaction of CO2 and a five-carbon compound called RuBP to form 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA). The 3-PGA enters the reduction phase of the Calvin cycle wherein it is reduced into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate make one molecule of glucose.

To test the hypothesis that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate from photosynthesis is used by plants to synthesize lipids, radiolabeled CO2 must be used. The radiolabeled carbon atom in the CO2 would be fixed in the form of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. If the plant uses glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as a precursor for lipid synthesis, the synthesized lipid molecules would carry the radiolabeled carbon atom.

Compare the meristematic tissue with the cancerous cells
solniwko [45]
Meristematic tissue have the ability to divide themselves. It is the primary site for cell division and cell differentiation. It produces the new cells and are called growing tissue in plants. The new cells may or may not divide. It is the source of the regenerative potential of the plant.  
<span>
Cancerous cells can originate anywhere in the body and can spread into or invade adjoining tissues. It keeps growing and dividing relentlessly to form lumps. It can also break off and travel to distant tissues. Cancer cells rejects signals from other  cells.</span>
