Answer:
Steroid; is a component of eukaryotic membranes.
Explanation:
Cholesterol is one of the most important chemical synthesized by all the animals. The chemical formula of cholesterol is C27H46O. The cholesterol in solid state was first given by C27H46O.
Cholesterol is present in the plasma membrane and maintain its membrane fluidity. Cholesterol is an important structure of the plasma membrane and acts as a pre cursor for various hormone. The cholesterol is a type of sterol and a lipid.
Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
Answer:
Gene therapy
Explanation:
Gene therapy can be defined as the methodologies used to modify/restore the expression of target genes and thus cure and treat genetic disorders. Gene therapy approaches consist of delivering specific nucleic acids (either RNA or DNA) in the cells of the individual to be treated. Some of the most important gene therapy approaches include the use of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in order to block target gene expression, adenovirus vectors to insert genes into host cells, the use of the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system to insert specific sequences by the mechanism of homologous recombination, etc.
Answer:
An electromagnetic wave
Explanation:
An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave that can travel across space as well as through matter. When it travels through space, it doesn't lose energy to a medium as a mechanical wave does.
Stem cells are very controversial for several reasons. Mainly, because stem cells need to be harvested from Embryos, which raises a huge ethical debate as to weather the (scientifically speaking, alive) embryo harvesting is not cruel and twisted, as these are human beings that are being used. Another ethical issue is that it is related to human cloning, and often times stem cells are mislabeled. Not to mention that there is an argument for the idea of cloning humans to be used for limb replacement, throwing everybody in a tizzy. Overall, one of the greatest medical acheivements of recent years has lots of issues that haunt it.
