Homologous recombination can be used in the lab to replace a gene of interest with a selection marker. To confirm that the selec

tion marker is integrated into the correct place in the genome, sometimes a negative selection is used in addition to the standard positive selection marker. Which of the following would act as a negative selection marker?
a. Transformation of a different gene, which does not act as a selection marker, to replace the gene of interest.â
b. A second marker in the knock out cassette, that if inserted into the genome results in cell death when plated on selective media.
c. Transforming the cells with two different knock out cassettes, each containing the same selection marker3. â

Answer:

b. A second marker in the knock-out cassette, that if inserted into the genome results in cell death when plated on selective media.

Explanation:

General recombination, also known as homologous recombination, refers to the naturally occurring process of exchange of genetic material between pairs of homologous DNA sequences. This process (homologous recombination) can be exploited by genetic engineering to insert DNA segments of interest at target genes. Moreover, a cassette is a mobile DNA segment containing almost a gene and a recombination site, which is integrated into the <em>locus</em>/<em>loci</em> of interest by homologous recombination. A cassette may contain a DNA segment called 'negative marker' which prevents growth under particular conditions, while a positive marker permits growth under certain conditions. In consequence, a second marker consisting of a drug cassette may be used as a negative marker in order to evidence its insertion by inducing cell death when they are plated in selective conditions.

2. There are often no specific tests that can be used to definitely prove that something has been forged. This is TRUE. there is no specific prove that something has forged.

3. Documents examiners have have an easy time in obtaining exemplars because most people volunteer them. This is FALSE because there is no easy way to obtain exemplars of documents.

4. All typewriters and related devices will have variations in the type over time as the typewriter experiences wear and tear to its parts. This is TRUE because typewriters and other devices will not have variations of tear and wear to its parts.

A split-brain patient sees something in her left visual field, and must reach behind a screen and select the object from a group
choli [55]

A split-brain patient sees something in her left visual field and must go after a screen and choose the object from a group of objects. she will choose the object perfectly with her left hand.

<h3>What can a split-brain patient do if they see something in the left visual field?</h3>

The fact that split-brain patients can only accurately respond to stimuli in the left visual field with their left hand and to stimuli in the right visual field with their right hand and vocally is another important component of the conventional view.

Patients with split brains can still walk, swim, and ride a bike, which are motor abilities that need both sides of the body and were taught before the onset of their disorder. They can also pick up new skills that require them to move their fingers or hands in parallel or mirror images.

A split-brain patient must reach behind a screen and choose the object from a collection after spotting it in her left visual field. She will use her left hand to make the proper selection of the item.
