Therapeutic cloning is the process of creating multiple copies of a cell to treat a disease.  In this type of cloning, the nucleus of a cell, such as a skin cell, is inserted into a fertilized egg whose nucleus has been removed. The nucleated egg begins to divide repeatedly to form a blastocyst. Stem cells are then extracted from the blastocyst and they are used to grow cells that are a perfect genetic match for the patient. The cells created through therapeutic cloning can then be transplanted into the patient to treat a disease from which the patient suffers.

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

I, II and III

Explanation:

The melting temperature of a DNA double helix is affected by several factors that affect the hydrogen bonds and /or the other interactions involved in maintaining the helical structure. Two DNA strands of a helix are held together by the hydrogen bonds between the complementary nitrogenous bases. The pH of the solution would affect the hydrogen bonds. If the pH is too acidic, the hydrogen bonds acceptor atoms will accept protons from the solution and would not be able to make hydrogen bonds.  

The ionic strength of the solution represents the ions present in it. If the solution has positively charged ions, the negative charges of phosphate residues of the DNA backbone will be neutralized. This would make the double helix more stable. Similarly, a longer DNA strand would have a higher melting temperature as more heat will be required to break more hydrogen bonds as compared to a shorter DNA strand.

The cause of the phases of the moon is a cycle that is close to how long
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The lunar phases gradually change over the period of a synodic month (about 29.53 days), as the orbital positions of the Moon around Earth and of Earth around the Sun shift. The Moon's rotation is tidally locked by Earth's gravity; therefore, most of the same lunar side always faces Earth.

<span>If a mutation introduces a new skin color in a lizard population and that </span>mutation makes some lizards more fit for their environment than other lizards then the frequency of <span>the new allele will increase. For example, if a mutation causes some dark skin color which can help some lizards to survive. The more lizards with dark skin color will survive, and after some time, the frequency of the new allele will increase.</span>
