1. AquAdvantage Salmon is a genetically engineered species of salmon first approved for human consumption by the FDA in 2015. To

create AquAdvantage Salmon, exogenous genes (i.e., transgenes) were introduced into Atlantic salmon from the genomes of Pacific Chinook salmon and ocean pout (an eelpout with naturally-occurring antifreeze proteins in its blood!) in a process known as __________________ g

Answer:

Gene Transfer

Explanation:

Gene Transfer is a form of Genetic Modification aimed at creating new qualities that do not naturally exist in a species. In the question above this was done by introducing the genetic makeup of the Pacific Chinook salmon and the ocean pout into the genome of the Atlantic Salmon.

AquaAdvantage salmons have been engineered to grow faster than Atlantic Salmon. They achieve an average size of 4.5Kg in 16 to 20 months compared to an average time of 30 months for naturally occurring Atlantic Salmon to reach the same size.

Explain how the independent alignment of homologs, and also crossing-over during the first meiotic division, each contribute to
BartSMP [9]

Answer: Homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. And they exchange segments of DNA during crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gamete cells, which are sex cells (egg and sperm)

Chromosomes that form a pair and are found together are called homologous chromosomes, and they are inherited from each parent. During prophase of meiosis I, the homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA in a process called crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged. <u>It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.</u>

After that, during the anaphase of meiosis I, the two chromosomes line up on the equatorial plane of the cell. Then, they are separated and each will go to a new daughter cell. So homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, <u>this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other.</u>

Why is it important to have both negative and positive feedback loops in the body
ELEN [110]

Answer: positive feedback loops enhance or amplify changes. this tends to move a system away from its equilibrium state and make it more unstable. Negative feedbacks tend to dampen or buffer changes. this tends to hold a system to some equilibrium state making it more stable.
