Answer:

A. synthesis of vitamin C.

Explanation:

Integumentary system refers to the skin and its appendages. So it doesn't have the role to synthesis vitamin C, but it can synthesis  vitamin D through exposure to UV light. The major role of integumentary system is protective role (immuno defense-from infections, dehydration, temperature changes, protection of underlying tissue etc). It also contains many receptors (for pain, touch, temperature change) that detect environmental changes.

Susan, a mother with Type B blood, has a child with Type O blood. She claims that Craig, who has Type A blood, is the father. He
never [62]

Answer:

b. Craig is right and doesn't have to pay child support.

Explanation:

ABO blood group is controlled by three alleles. IA and IB are codominant to each other and both are dominant over i allele. IAIA and IAi produce A blood group. IBIB and IBi produce B blood group. ii produces O blood group.

Susan's son has O blood group so his genotype must be ii. He got one "i" allele from Susan and one "i" allele from his father. Craig's genotype is IAIA so there is no chance that he could have passed on "i" allele to Susan's son. Hence Craig is not his father and does not need to pay child support.

Which procedure would help ensure that a new piece of DNA can be inserted inside a bacterial plasmid when the two are mixed toge
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The fragment and plasmid are both cut with the same restriction enzyme.

Explanation:

To insert a piece of DNA in a bacterial plasmid, we need to cut both plasmid and DNA insert from same regions. This is typically done by restriction enzymes or restriction endonuclease. This cutting will open the plasmid (which is circular initially) and produce <u>sticky ends.</u> Here, DNA insert can attach because of similar sequence (see attached figure). In the final step, DNA ligase will glue it in the plasmid and it will become its part. This technique has been extensively used as a DNA recombinant technology. A better representation can be seen in the attached figure where both DNA sequence of interest and plasmid are cut with the same restriction enzyme (shown as scissors) and then ligated with DNA ligase.

Answer:

Grabbing a handful of mixed candy out of a bowl.

Explanation:

For all other options you are choosing specific items... such as a book from the library, or choosing items written on your grocery list, or choosing what to pack for lunch. Bycatch in fishing refers to catching extra fish, other than what you are selecting for. By grabbing a handful of mixed candy from a bowl you are not selecting for a specific 'fish'.
