Bacteria is a prime candidate for genetic engineering because of its ___________ and ____________?
N76 [4]

The given blanks can be filled with the ability to take up foreign DNA and express proteins faster.  

The direct manipulation of the genes of an organism with the application of biotechnology is known as genetic engineering. It is an array of technologies that are utilized to modify the genetic make-up of an organism, involving the transfer of genes across and within the boundaries of the species to generate novel or bettered organisms.  

In genetic engineering, bacteria play a key role, as it is an essential tool for natural scientists. The genes and other genetic information from a broad array of species can be administered into bacteria for modification and storage, thus producing genetically modified bacteria in the procedure.  

The bacteria possess the tendency to take up foreign DNA and expresses the desired proteins at a faster rate.

Ammonia is likely to be the primary nitrogenous waste in living conditions that include
WINSTONCH [101]

The correct answer is: A) lots of fresh water flowing across the gills of a fish.

Nitrogenous wastes, formed by the breakdown of proteins and nucleic acids (both contain nitrogen in their structure) tend to form toxic ammonia. Since it is toxic and raises the pH of body fluids it requires ATP and large quantities of fresh water to dilute it out of a biological system.  So, only aquatic animals tend to release ammonia into the water (terrestrial animals release urea or ureic acid). Animals that excrete ammonia are said to be ammonotelic.
