Which of the following statements is correct regarding engineering maize plants with a herbicide-resistance gene using Agrobacte

rium-mediated plant transformation?
a. The Ti-plasmid used for this experiment must contain tumor-inducing genes.
b. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into the T-DNA region of the Ti-plasmid.
c. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into a region outside of the T-DNA in the Ti-plasmid.
d. A guide RNA is used to transfer T-DNA from Agrobacterium to the plant cell.
e. The whole Ti-plasmid containing the herbicide-resistance gene is inserted into the maize genome after infection with Agrobacterium

Answer:

b. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into the T-DNA region of the Ti-plasmid.

Explanation:

Ti-plasmid has the ability to introduce part of its DNA (t-DNA) into the genome of host plants. This is very important for the relationship of genetic manipulation in maize plants, with the aim of inducing a gene that promotes herbicide resistance. In addition, T-DNA has many genes that code for the production of plant growth phytohormones, which is extremely important for the cloning process to work. In this case, we can assume that the correct answer for yours is the letter B.

nydimaria [60]
If tall plants crossed with short plants give all tall, it means that the tall plants contain genes that dominate over the short ones. 
We call the genes for tallness dominant.

Beta cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans act as glucose sensors, adjusting insulin output in response to blood glucose
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

The host's immune response to the transplanted graft, which is commonly exhibited as pericapsular fibrotic overgrowth (PFO), is one of the key causes of defective encapsulated islets in (PFO).PFO creates a barrier upon this capsule surface that inhibits and impedes oxygen and nutrients from entering, resulting in islet cell deprivation, hypoxia, and/or death. This host immune response was missing under in vitro circumstances, which explains why glucose sensing and insulin release were more efficient than in vivo circumstances. Nonetheless, utilizing nanoporous encapsulation or modifying the microcapsular shape and geometry can solve these issues.
