Answer:

The company used it to improve the immunity of bacterial cultures against viruses and many food manufacturers now use the technology to produce cheese and yoghurt. Since then the technology has been used to delete, insert and modify DNA in human cells and other animal cells grown in petri dishes.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Point mutations arise when a single amino acid base is changed. This could cause some differences in the organism or it may not. Manufactured point mutations in model systems such as yeast offer a powerful tool to examine the function of different amino acids in a protein.

There are three types of point mutations

  1. Silent: these mutations have a single residue change but it does not affect the amino acid that is being coded. There is no change to the wild type
  2. Nonsense: will cause a stop or start or gain of start/stop codon.
  3. Mis-sense: will cause a change of amino acid residue. There are two types of  mis-sense Conservative and non-conservative. The former will cause a change in amino acid base to one that has similar properties while the former will change to an amino acid of different properties often having different traits than the wild type.

Meiosis guarantees that in a sexual life cycle, offspring will inherit one complete set of chromosomes (and their associated gen
insens350 [35]

Answer:

HEREDITY ONLY:

none

GENETIC VARIATION ONLY:

none

BOTH:

all

Explanation:

In all the organism that reproduce sexually, produced offspring are genetically varied. As this genetic variation continues, it also leads to hereditary evolution of organism through gene flow from one generation to other. Therefore, the processes of DNA replication, crossing over, chromosome separation and alignment etc. ensure flow of genes from one generation to the next. This does not happen in organisms reproducing asexually.
