6. Which of the following has the lowest cost of production of recombinant proteins?
mina [271]

Answer:

Bacteria

Explanation:

Bacteria constitutes large group of unicellular organisms that lacks membrane bound organelles and constitute cell wall. Bacteria are used for the production of recombinant proteins.

Bacteria can be selected easily for the recombinant protein formation. The plasmid of bacteria is helpful for the integration of desired genes and the production of protein. The bacteria culture can be maintained easily in the laboratory. The different strains of bacteria with different traits can be used for the production of different recombinant proteins at low cost.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

Provide explanations of genotypes and phenotypes.
Korvikt [17]
The phenotype is the physical appearance of an organism, while the Genotype is the genetic composition of an organism. Phenotype is observable and are the expression of the genes of an individual. So even the organism with the same species may differ, with a minute difference in their genotype. This is the main difference between the two.

We can notice one’s hair colour, eye colour, height, weight, skin colour, etc. but cannot look at genes responsible for these characters, so the observable physical look is the phenotype while the unnoticed genes responsible for such characters present in the DNA of cell of the individual is genotype.

To explain the above lines, here is the simple example of a pure red colour flowering plant (RR) is crossed with the white colour flowering plant (rr). The result of the Genotype of the F1 generation will be – Rr (Hybrid red colour), and the Phenotype of the F1 generation will be the – Red colour flowering plant.

Genotype and phenotype are the two very closely related and similar-sounding words, but their meaning is different. Our earth has a dynamic variety of organisms, present in soil, water and on land. But as the genome of each organism is different, and so there phenotypes also whether it’s their colour, height, weight or other morphological features.
