Answer: The options are not given, here are the options.

A) No the DNA in circulating erythrocytes ins needed to help transport O2 through the capillaries

B) No circulating erythrocytes contain DNA.

C) Yes DNA is responsible for cell division in most cells

D) Yes circulating erythrocytes carry DNA nutrients through the capillaries

The correct option is B.

No circulating erythrocytes contain DNA.

Explanation:

Erythrocytes or red blood cells is a biconcave disc that contain haemoglobin which help to carry oxygenated blood in the body.

Circulating erythrocytes do not contain dna because they lack nuclei and organelles, cannot synthesize any RNA, therefore cannot divide and have limited repair capabilities.

Because they cannot carryout protein synthesis, no virus can evolve and invade the red blood cells.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, and your lungs expand into it. The muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.

This information made them buy a contagious virus rather than a medicine.</span>

A complete plant gene containing four introns and five exons is carried on a 6.0-kb DNA fragment. DNA sequencing analysis finds
damaskus [11]

Answer and Explanation:

the total length of the gene is 6,000 base pairs (or) 6.0 kb and it has five exons, four introns and a 1,000 base pair length flanking region for the transcribed region.

Hence, each exon has (1500/5) = 300 by

each intron has (3500/4) = 875 by and

flanking segment (5' and 3') length for the transcribed region would be (1000/2) = 500 bp.

The gene segment is as shown in the <em>1st diagram attached below </em>

In eukaryotes, transcription takes place in the nucleus which results in the synthesis of hnRNA (heteronuclear ribonucleic acid). This hnRNA (pre-RNA) has both introns and exons, however when it is synthesized or while it is being synthesized the Spliceosomal complex removes introns from hnRNA and becomes converted into mRNA (messenger RNA) in the nucleus itself.  

(<em>second diagram explains further)</em>

Now the synthesized mRNA reaches the cytoplasm. So, if mRNA collected from the nucleus and cytoplasm will have the same length of about 2,500 base pairs only. Therefore, after the commencement of northern blot analysis both mRNA will yield the same kind of result and have unique length.
