Chronic lymphocytic leukemia or the CLL  is among the most common type of leukemia affecting the adults. The lymphocytic leukemia starts in the lymphocytes. Lymphocytic leukemia is different from the lymphoma (which also occur in the lymphocytes) as it only occurs in the bone marrow and the blood. The person suffering from CLL is susceptible to an array of infections. Among the various infectious agents, the CLL patient is the most susceptible to the Staphylococcus aureus.

Which statement is FALSE about ATP? (A) Its concentration is maintained in part by adenylate kinase.(B) The concentration of ATP
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

(B) The concentration of ATP in cells is generally much lower than that of AMP.

Explanation:

AMP is 5’-adenylic acid or adenosine monophosphate. It has only one phosphate group attached to the sugar as compared to three phosphate groups of ATP. In general, cells have a much lower concentration of AMP than ATP. ATP is found in much higher concentration in cells than the AMP since ATP serves as energy currency for the cells while AMP is involved in relatively few metabolic pathways.

<h3>What is genetic modification?</h3>

A technique to change the characteristics of a plant, animal, or microorganism by swapping a piece of DNA from one organism to an another organism is referred to as gene modification.

Selective breeding entails selecting parents with specific characteristics to breed with in order to generate offspring with more desirable characteristics.

Individuals in selective breeding should be of a similar species. Scientists use GMOs to generate new gene combinations. Genes pair on their own through selective breeding.

Thus, this is the difference between selective breeding and genetic modification.
