Answer:

c) G2

Explanation:

A cell cycle is the chorological order of events that allow them to divide and produce new cells. The cell cycle consists of interphase and M (mitosis). Interphases includes gap1(G1), synthesis (S-phase)  and gap 2 (G2) phase.  

During S-phase or synthesis phase, the cell replicates or duplicates its DNA. Coping of DNA requires lots of energy because replication requires synthesis of lots of nucleotides. At the end of S-phase, the cell have two complete sets of genetic material.

During G2 phase cells both the copies of their DNA are correct and intact. Thus, as per question, during G2 phase it can be observed that the nucleus of a cell contain 6 picograms of DNA.

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

In G2 phase (third phase of interphase) of cell division, following the S phase. It is during the S phase of the cell division during which the DNA of the cell replicates. Hence, in the G2 has double the DNA range as compared to the DNA range in prior stages of interphase. Also, in G2 phase cell grows and protein synthesize

Option C is correct

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The correct applications are A, B, C, F, G and H.

Explanation:

The technology named Recombinant DNA Technology in the example is a technology which involves the combining process of the DNA segments. This segment then can be inserted into another living cell to replicate in there by itself or it can be added or integrated to a chromosome and then put into the cell for replication. Given this ability to manipulate and replicate these modified DNA molecules, this technology can lead to;

  • A: can be used to give the plants an advantage over certain diseases or bugs that prevent their growth.
  • B: can be used to modify/isolate and understand the functions of genes.
  • C: can be used to swap and modify genes in the human body, giving them different abilities.
  • F: can be used to match the DNA samples taken from the crime scenes by trying different combinations and possibilities.
  • G: can be used in pharmaceutical industry, for example, making the bacterias produce insulin hormones by modifying their DNA and using this for the people with diabetes.
  • H: can be used in gene therapy which is a process where a person's DNA is altered and put back in their body to help them produce certain enzymes/hormones/proteins thus curing specific diseases.

I hope this answer helps.

Enteric bacteria most useful in the routine monitoring of microbial pollution are gram-negative rods called?
babunello [35]

E-coli bacteria which most useful in the routine monitoring of microbial pollution are gram negative rods and this is common indicator organism of water contamination.

It is important to identify enteric bacteria which is one of the major causes of diarrhea disease is bacteria and that detection of pathogenic bacteria is a global key to the prevention and identification of food borne diseases and enteric infections like diarrhea.

The extent of water  contamination can be measured using these indicator organisms. This fecal coli-form group has been used as the most common indicator of general wastewater contamination because they are abundant and easy to identify.
