Answer:
a rat with rabbit hemoglobin genes
Explanation:
When the genome of an organism is modified in the field of genetic engineering,by transplanting the gene(DNA) from one organisms to another,(by vectors) or alteration of the gene components,the resulting organism produced or formed is called Transgenic organism.
This process of genetic engineering makes use of recombination of genes to alter the genome of the transgenic organism.
Thus by transferring to rat ( the DNA for Hb) as the rabbit Hb,the gene( or genome) for producing Hb in tats has been modified by that of rabbit.Hence Rat is said to transgenic.
Besides animals crop plants are also genetically modified.Thus the genome of some crops are altered to resist herbicides and pesticides. Some species of rice (golden rice)have been modified to add certain vitamins to improve the nutritional values.
Genetically modified bananas as edible vaccines are another example
Answer: 1/4
Explanation:
Firstly, in order for both parents to be type A and have children with type o blood, their blood types must both be Ao. Since o is a recessive blood type, a punnett square shows there is a 25% chance any child of theirs will have type o blood. If neither parent is color blind and they have a son who is, it implies that the mother is a carrier of colorblindness and has the genotype XᴮXᵇ. If you do a punnett square of the not colorblind father (XᴮY) and the mother, it shows that a daughter would have a 0% chance of being colorblind. Therefore colorblindess is irrelevent, since there is no possibility of the daughter not having normal color vision. In conclusion, there's a 25% chance she will have type o blood and not be colorblind, since the other 75% chance would be having type A blood and not being colorblind.
Answer:
How Does the Immune System Work?
Innate immunity: Everyone is born with innate (or natural) immunity, a type of general protection. ...
Adaptive immunity: Adaptive (or active) immunity develops throughout our lives. ...
Passive immunity: Passive immunity is "borrowed" from another source and it lasts for a short time.
Answer:
A. What is your diagnosis here?
As per symptoms and incident of puncturing left arm with nail from an old barn indicates it can be infection of Clostridium tetani causing disease tetanus.
When such kinds of wound occurs, there should be injection of tetanus immunoglobulin (TIG) immediately. This injection contains antibodies against Clostridium tetani which can kill the microorganism. It should be injected as soon as possible. But this is short term immediate medication.
B. What is the proper treatment of this problem?
For the treatment antibiotic penicillin, metronidazole or tetracycline can be given, it prevents multiplication of bacteria and production of neurotoxin from bacteria. these neurotoxins are responsible for muscular spasms. Along with antibiotic some anticonvasculants, muscle relaxants can be given to reduce spasms, anxiety.
C. How could this have been prevented?
This infection can be prevented by giving its vaccine in childhood itself. Vaccine is given in the form of DTaP vaccine (diptheria, tetanus toxoid, acellular pertusis). It is given in 5 shots. It is given in the arm or thigh when child is at 2 month age, 4 month age, 6 month age, 15 to 18 month age, 4- 6 years of age.
