I believe heterotrophs are organisms that get their energy by eating other organisms. These organisms are also called predators
After hundreds or even thousands of generations both alleles for sickle cell anemia are still common in those of African ancestry. This is supported by two mechanisms: heterozygote advantage and gene flow.
Heterozygote advantage
When an allele is said to be heterozygous, it is carrying one copy of a gene. For example if one carries a copy of sickle cell allele, it will stay in the population even after many generations — natural selection will not be able to remove it and it will be passed on through generations. So, having one copy of that allele is advantageous but not deleterious.
Gene flow
With humans migrating throughout the different parts of the world, sickle cell allele is passed from one person to another or in different populations. It is actually advantageous to have one copy of this allele especially if there’s malaria in the area, which the allele is resistant.
It’s B genetically engineered trees could have unexpected interactions with organisms of natural ecosystems.
The answer to this is genetic diversity. Genetic Diversity is the total number of genetic makeup of a species. It distinguished from genetic variability, which describes the tendency of genetic characteristics to vary. <span />
I believe using gel electrophoresis to separate and identify plasmids and short linear pieces of DNA would be important if one is making a recombinant plasmid and has to verify that he/she has been successful. Gel electrophoresis is a technique that is used to separate mixtures of DNA, RNA, or proteins according to molecular size. The molecules being separated are pushed by an electrical field through a gel that contains small pores.
