When we extracted our own DNA last Friday, how did the things we used (Gatorade, alcohol, soap) relate to the things that are us

Answer:

Soap solution functions to dissolve the cell membranes, alcohol is used to precipitate DNA, and Gatorade is a isotonic solution.

Explanation:

In the DNA extraction protocols, the cell membranes that are formed by lipidic bilayers can be dissolved by using detergent solutions that are functionally analog to soap solution, shampoo, etc. On the other hand, alcohol enables to precipitate DNA (because DNA is not soluble in alcohol), while proteins and other cellular components remain in the extraction solution. Finally, Gatorade is a isotonic solution that may be used to prevent the cells from lysing.

Explain how the use of genetically engineered products can affect the economy and society.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

due to gmos we can expand the shelf life of many of our foods and prevent them from the harm of pests. You night be rhinking why not use pesticides? well, we did but eventually the pests became immune to the low dose of pesticide. over time we gradually increased our uses of pesticides. more commonly round up. this pesticide specifically was known for being a carcinogen. (something that causes cancer.) Genetically modifying a crop can severely decrease the amount of pesticides used for our crops and could also potentially drop the prices. for example, in hawaii during the 1940s to 1990s the ringspot viruses hit the hawaiian papaya harvest hard. this reduced the amount of papaya produced by 50 percent by 1993 and 2006. the ringspot virus nearly wiped out the entire crop. within 11 months, the hawaiian papya was saved. due to gmos of course. this is because scientists took genes from immune papayas which very rarelt occured (at the time) and injected it into many other papya plants. as the plants grew, new papaya was produced which was immine to ringspit virus. PAPAYA WAS SAVED!!!!

The suncoast tree of northwest Africa is known for 2 traits that are said to show simple dominance. The 2 traits are height and
ivann1987 [24]

The genotypes would be bbTT X BbTt

Assuming that bark color is represented by B (b) allele and height is represented by T (t) allele.

Since the traits show simple dominance: blue (B) of dominant over purple (b) and tall (T) is dominant over short (t)

  • The genotype of a tree that is purebred purple (bb) and tall (TT) would be bbTT
  • The genotype of a tree that is heterozygous for both trait would be BbTt
  • Thus, the cross would be bbTT x BbTt

Use mitochondrion in a sentence
olga nikolaevna [1]
Mitochondrion a singular word for mitochondria is a "powerhouse" organelle of the cell.

<span>Mitochondrion is an important organelle in most living organisms because it is where biochemical processes of living organisms such as respiration takes place. The mitochondrion has a smooth outer membrane but a larger inner membrane. The inner membrane is about 70% protein and is very convoluted because that can even fit inside the outer membrane. Mitochondrion is the carrier of the Kreb's cycle in the matrix and it is responsible for the transfer of electron chain found in the cristae of the inner membrane.</span>
