A physician has a patient with diabetes. Due to a mutation in the patient’s insulin gene, he does not make the insulin protein.

In order to treat the patient, the insulin protein will be made in a lab by inserting the human gene for insulin into bacteria. The bacteria will then produce insulin, which will be collected and given to the diabetic patient. Which type of genetic technology is involved in the production of the insulin protein?

What would happen if the bases in DNA strands were connected by a bond other than a hydrogen bond?
tekilochka [14]
The correct answer is It would be more difficult for DNA to unzip since it would require more energy to break the bonds.

That is because it would most probably be a covalent bond and such a bond is stronger than a hydrogen bond which means that more energy would be needed to break it.

Elephant seals are abundant in their population size but they have low genetic diversity within their species due to overhunting
Anastasy [175]
<h2>Genetic diversity </h2>

Explanation:

If the environment changes, the species runs the risk of not having the genetic diversity to be adaptable to that change and could go extinct

  • Genetic diversity is the diversity  or genetic variability within species
  • The huge variety of different gene sets defines an individual or a whole population's ability to tolerate stress from any given environmental factor
  • While some individuals might be able to tolerate an increased load of pollutants in their environment, others carrying different genes might suffer from infertility or even die under the exact same environmental conditions;the former will continue to live in the environment the latter will either have to leave it or die
  • Any change in the environment - natural or human induced causes a selection of events that only the fittest survive
  • In case of elephant seals,overhunting reduces the sum of genes available,thus leaving behind a population that is less capable of tolerating any further natural or human disturbances in environment
  • The loss of genetic diversity within a species can result in the loss of useful and desirable traits
