Why are biotechnology companies eager to design genetically modified organisms to express therapeutic proteins, particularly one

s that would otherwise have to be isolated from blood products (e.g., human antithrombin) or animal organs (e.g., insulin, originally isolated from pig pancreas)?

Answer:

This is because of reasons of-

safety,

cost-effectiveness and

 difficulty in  accessibility of needed  protein

Explanation:

In order to reduce cost of production for maximal profit, bio.companies usually design their production of therapeutic proteins  in possible  cost -effective way.This is to  ensure maximal yields from production sales. Therefore maximum cost  effectiveness is achieved through GMO rather through isolation from blood products or other sources which are expensive and capital intensive to get

In addition safety concerns during production is of ultimost importance to theses companies.Therefore when   using  of protein from different sources  high safety measures are needed to be put in place to achieve best results. whereas GMO comes with little risks.

These companies experiences difficulty in collecting required amount of low abundant protein needed for the synthesis of therapeutic proteins, thus they will rather prefer the design of GMO for abundant supply.

What process occurs in both animal and plant cells?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Kreb’s Cycle

Explanation:

Krebs Cycle is the process that occurs in cellular respiration, which is a process that animals and plants both conduct for ATP. The rest occur in photosynthesis, which only occurs in plants to make their own glucose. In addition, the Calvin Cycle and Dark Reaction are different names for the same reaction.

I hope this helps. :)

Part 3- Discussion You must answer this in a minimum of 8 complete sentences.
Kruka [31]

I think most of the environmental pressure will come from pollution, and a lack of space. With so many people around, there''s going to be a lot of vehicle use, and things such as littering. We're going to have to change and start cleaning up after ourselves and limit the use of gas.

The pressure in the past will be: raising temperature and flooding, more Co2 in the atmosphere.

We might for example evolve to better extract the oxygen from the atmosphere and be better resistant to heat.

Answer: I believe that the environmental pressures that exist now and that may be shaping the human species are the use of land, the extraction of resources, greenhouse emissions and water use. This are being used by use more and more as we start overpopulating the earth.

Explain the process of breathing begin with inhalation and describe the route that the air takes to the lungs and what happens w
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Please find the detailed explanation below

Explanation:

The breathing process is the process of breathing in, also called inhalation and breathing out, also called exhalation. Inhalation and exhalation are important processes for a smooth respiratory experience.

Air (containing oxygen) from our external environment enter our body system via our MOUTH or NOSE. The air then passes from the PHARYNX into the LARYNX or voice box, which connects into the TRACHEA or wind pipe, which conveys the air into the lungs via its branched tubes called BRONCHI. These pipes that air passes through in order to reach the lungs are generally called AIR WAYS.

Inhalation (breathing in) involves the taking in of air into the LUNGS (main organ of respiration). It occurs when the diaphragm (muscle separating the thorax from abdomen) contracts and moves downward towards the abdomen. This allows the lungs to expand, allowing air to enter into the lungs via the NOSE or MOUTH down the TRACHEA or windpipe.

As soon as air reaches the lungs, the air passes through the bronchi (tubular branches of the trachea) into the ALVEOLI or air sacs. The delivery of oxygen in the inhaled air is carried out in the CAPILLARIES (a blood vessel that carries blood) that surrounds the alveoli. This alveoli conveys oxygen from the lungs into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide out of the bloodstream into the lungs (a process called GAS EXCHANGE).

Breathing out or exhalation of the carbon dioxide in the lungs (waste product of respiration) occurs when the diaphragm relaxes and moves upward, causing the lungs to deflate as the carbon dioxide is released through the trachea into the mouth or nose where it leaves the body system.
