A genomic sequencing method called _______ sequencing was used in the human genome project. In this method, DNA is broken into m

any small fragments and the fragments are sequenced, then computers help reassemble the fragments into the larger DNA sequence.
Selective breeding of individuals with similar traits to produce genetically similar offspring is called _______.
Human _______, creating a genetically identical human, is banned in many countries around the world, including the United States.
DNA fingerprinting can be used in paternity tests, because for the most part _______ do not undergo recombination, and are passed from father to son unchanged.
Respond to the following based on your reading.

What was the main goal of the Human Genome Project?

1. shotgun

2. inbreeding

3. cloning

4. Y chromosomes

5. The Human Genome Project sought to map a human's entire genome.

6. Inbreeding is a type of selective breeding that occurs when individuals with similar characteristics continue to be bred in an attempt to keep a certain set of traits. However, inbred organisms are genetically similar, and the probability that members of the population will receive mutated alleles leading to disorders is high.

7. Since no two humans have the same DNA, except for identical twins, forensics can take advantage of this fact by using DNA fingerprinting to solve crimes, convict wrongdoers, or overturn unjust convictions.

The membranes of both B cells and the cancer cells are largely composed of phospholipids. Explain how, when the membranes are fu
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The cell membrane separates the external and internal environment of the cell. The cell membrane is composed of bilayer lipids, proteins and small amount of carbohydrates.

The lipid part is soluble in hydrophobic environment or with the hydrophobic part of other phospholipids because like molecules dissolve in like molecules. The hydrophobic part is non polar and hydrophilic parts is able to dissolve in polar area due to the interaction of same molecules with each other.

Describe neuroendocrine and metabolic aspects of endocrinology
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Given the current environment in most developed countries, it is a challenge to maintain a good balance between calories consumed and calories burned, although maintenance of metabolic balance is key to good health. Therefore, understanding how metabolic regulation is achieved and how the dysregulation of metabolism affects health is an area of intense research. Most studies are focused on the hypothalamus, which is a brain area that acts as a key regulator of metabolism. Among the nuclei that comprise the hypothalamus, the arcuate nucleus is one of the major mediators in the regulation of food intake. The regulation of energy balance is also a key factor to ensure the maintenance of any species because of the dependence of reproduction on energy stores. Adequate levels of energy reserves are necessary for proper functioning of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis. This review discusses valuable data presented in the 2015 edition of the International Workshop of Neuroendocrinology concerning the fundamental nature of the hormonal regulation of the hypothalamus and the impact on energy balance and reproduction.

Hope this is helpful, have a nice day! :)
