Plasmodium is an organism with both sexual and asexual life cycles. Describe the most likely cause of a heritable phenotypic cha

nge in some members of a population of asexually reproducing organisms. Explain how repeated exposure of the artesunate-sensitive Plasmodium strain to increasing concentrations of artesunate led to the development of the artesunate-resistant Plasmodium strain.

Answer:

Mutation.

Explanation:

Mutation in the organism's DNA that is passed on to the offspring is that main cause of heritable phenotypic change in some members of a population that reproduces asexually. Repeated exposure of Plasmodium that is sensitive to artesunate strain to increasing dosage of artesunate led to the development of resistance in plasmodium because the genetic mutation occur in the plasmodium that provide resistance against artesunate.

What is the body's response to energy ?
Paraphin [41]

Carbohydrates, such as sugar and starch, for example, are readily broken down into glucose, the body's principal energy source. Glucose can be used immediately as fuel, or can be sent to the liver and muscles and stored as glycogen.The body constantly uses and replenishes its glycogen stores.

Beneficios y desventajas de la modificación genetica
finlep [7]
La manipulación genética representa todas aquellas técnicas que permiten modificar de forma directa los genes en el interior de las células de los organismos vivos. Estas modificaciones pueden ser a través de la inserción, la eliminación o la alteración de uno o más genes específicos. Todas las instrucciones que hacen que un organismo sea lo que es están codificadas en los genes, es decir que estos fragmentos de ADN son los que le indican a cada parte de las células y a cada célula en el cuerpo de un organismo multicelular o unicelular, qué debe hacer, cuándo y cómo. La manipulación genética es uno de los procesos científicos biotecnológicos más empleados hoy en día, ya que incluye todas las herramientas necesarias para modificar las características físicas de prácticamente cualquier ser vivo o, mejor dicho, de todo lo que tenga información genética en su interior (ADN o ARN).

Hoy en día la manipulación genética es uno de los temas más discutidos por la sociedad científica, pues existen herramientas biotecnológicas capaces de manipular de manera fácil y efectiva casi cualquier gen que se desee en un organismo Entre los organismos que se pueden “manipular genéticamente” se incluye al ser humano, y es allí donde surgen la mayoría de los debates, ya que a pesar de que la manipulación genética puede ayudar a curar un gran número de enfermedades hereditarias, también puede utilizarse para crear armas biológicas sumamente peligrosas.
