What is the significance of stem cells in the process of meiosis (i.e., what are they there for?)

Biology
1 answer:
rjkz [21]3 years ago
6 0
Well, certain stem cells are able to become any kind of (somatic) cell (totipotent stem cells), which helps in organ regeneration, etc. the only problem is that removing even one stem cell from an embryo kills the embryo, and people dont like that.

Material through which water readily flows is termed ____.
Simora [160]
Material through which water flows is permeable. This material can be either natural or artificial. Naturally permeable material can be clean sand and gravel for example, or a sandstone and in the latter case the sandstone can have both porosity which is not synonymous with permeability as the pores must be connected to be permeable. An impermeable membrane could be used to line ditches for example to prevent leakage near mines.

Plasmids are small circular DNA molecules found in bacteria that replicate separately from chromosomes. Why are plasmids essenti
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

DNA from a gene of interest can be inserted into a plasmid, then the modified plasmid can be inserted into a bacterial cell to replicate a gene of interest many times.

Explanation:

Plasmids are the extra-chromosomal circular DNA present in bacterial cells. Plasmids are able to replicate themselves independent of genetic DNA. Their ability to self replicate allows them to maintain themselves in the bacterial cells. This is why plasmids are used as cloning vectors in recombinant DNA technology.

A gene of interest is isolated from the donor cell and is inserted into the plasmid. The recombinant plasmid is introduced into bacterial cells where it replicates the ligated desired gene and allows the gene cloning. For example, the human insulin gene is ligated with plasmid and the recombinant plasmid is introduced in <em>E. coli</em> where it replicates the human insulin gene and allows the production of desired copies of the gene.
