What is a recombinant plasmid?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

DNA plasmid that contains both "old" and "new" gene segments and confers new characteristics to the organism in which it is placed.

Explanation:

During the genetic engineering procedure, which aims at producing an organism with better and desirable characteristics, a DNA called PLASMID is usually used to convey the gene of interest into the organism.

A plasmid is a self-replicating extra-chromosomal DNA found in the bacterial genome. The plasmid becomes a RECOMBINANT PLASMID when a foreign DNA of interest is inserted into it, in order to act as a vector (carrier). Therefore, a recombinant plasmid is a DNA plasmid that contains both "old" i.e bacterial genome and "new" i.e foreign gene segments and confers new characteristics to the organism in which it is placed.

The diagram shows a normal red blood cell and a shrunken red blood cell, both of which are in salt water.
bixtya [17]

Answer: Water moved from inside the red blood cell into the salt water.

This is because of the osmotic difference between the salt solution and the red blood cell. This means that there is difference in the solute (salt) concentration inside the red blood cell and the salt solution.

Explanation: The salt concentration in the solution is higher than the salt concentration inside the red blood cell, that is, the red blood cell has more water concentration that the salt solution, therefore there will be movement of water from the inside of the red blood cell into the salt solution thereby causing the red blood cell to reduce in size. The movement of water from the red blood cell into the salt solution is to create a balance between the water concentration in the two environments, hence the movement of water from an area of high water concentration to an area of low solvent concentration across the selectively permeable membrane of the red blood cell.
