Relate the use of genetic engineering to the treatment of human illnesses such as hemophilia. I need help

Biology
1 answer:
matrenka [14]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Hemophilia is caused by a defective or missing  clotting factor VIII . This causes a subject to lose excess blood in case of a cut. This clotting factor is coded for  a gene in the DNA of the blood  platelet cells. A mutation in this gene causes hemophilia.

Genetic engineering allows for gene therapy to be possible to rectify the defective gene. This is done at the embryo stage. The gene in the X chromosome (because this is a sex-linked gene) is rectifying using tools like the CRISPR Cas9 tool.

What happens to the matter in an egg when it gets cooked ?
Irina-Kira [14]

It's the proteins that cause the egg white to solidify when you cook it. If you keep the heat turned up too high or too long when you cook an egg, the proteins in the egg white form more and more bonds, squeezing some of the water out of the protein network and making the egg white rubbery.
