Explanation:

Yes they can. An AB parent can indeed sometimes have an O child. But it is by no means common. In fact it would be fair to say that it is exceedingly rare.

The one exception is in certain Asian groups. Some of these folks have a rare version of the ABO blood type gene called cis-AB. People with this gene version have an AB blood type but can easily have an O child.

It’s not common, but yes it’s possible. Though, you need to get an O allele from both parents to have blood type O, there are a few ways:
-If that parent is cis-AB (that is carrying A and B alleles on the same chromosome) and the other allele is O, the parent will have the alleles (AB) O and may pass the O allele to his/her child.

tructures used in recombinant DNA technology to carry the DNA from the cells of one species to the cells of another species are

Kobotan [32]

The process of fusing two or more DNA molecules to produce a hybrid is known as recombinant DNA. Restrictions endonucleases and ligases are two classes of enzymes that enable the technique.

When a restriction endonuclease detects a particular DNA sequence, it makes cuts inside or near that sequence. The recognition sequence of a restriction enzyme will haphazardly appear on every (1–4)n bases along a random DNA chain. The equation states how many fragments ends (measured in moles) are produced when a restriction enzyme cuts DNA.

Moles of DNA ends =2x(grams of DNA)/(number of bp)(660 g/mol / bp).

The equation describes how many ends are produced when circular DNA is digested by a restriction enzyme.

Mole ends=2x(moles DNA)x number of restriction sites.

The following equation can be used to determine how many ends are produced during the digestion of a linear molecule by a restriction endonuclease.

Mole ends=2x(molesDNA)number of restriction sites +[2x(moles of DNA)].

The greenhouse and enhanced greenhouse effects refer to the return of approximately ______ percent and greater than ______ perce

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The greenhouse and enhanced greenhouse effects refer to the return of approximately <u>80</u> percent and greater than <u>80</u> percent of the heat radiated by Earth.

Explanation:

During natural greenhouse effect :

. Solar radiation reaches the earth

. Re-radiation of heat occurs

. Less re-emitted heat

. More heath escapes into space

Hence the greenhouse effect refers to return of 80% of heat radiated by Earth.

While during Human Enhanced Greenhouse effect :

. Solar radiation reaches earth

. Re-radiation of heat occurs

. More re-emitted heat

. Less heat escapes into space

Hence the enhanced greenhouse effect refers to return of more than 80% of heat radiated by Earth .
