Answer:

This is because through this technique;

  • The targeted animal with its unique traits and healthier properties can be developed through cloning.
  • Doctors believe this innovative techniques could help eliminate animal extinction as a whole and preserve animal species overtime.
  • It can help facilitate genetically modified medicines through cell manipulation and cloning.

Answer:

The Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer technique has the potential to be used to reproduce extinct species.

Explanation:

Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) involves the nucleus from a somatic body cell being transferred to the cytoplasm of an enucleated egg (an egg that has had its own nucleus removed). Once the somatic nucleus is inside the egg it is reprogrammed by egg cytoplasmic factors to become a fertilized egg (zygote) nucleus. The egg is allowed to develop to the blastocyst stage where embryonic stem cells can be created from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst. Mouse, monkey and human embryonic stem cells have been made using SCNT.

Reproductive cloning occurs by implanting a SCNT derived blastocyst into the uterus of a surrogate mother, where the embryo develops into a fetus.

The SCNT technique was used to create the first cloned mammal, Dolly the sheep.

Nikitich [7]
It depends what the amino acid will do. Usually it wouldn't disrupt the folding. But it could prevent the substrate binding and it would destroy or decrease protein function... I hope this helped.

Where do homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material through crossing over? 
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

D. Chiasma

Explanation:

In Prophase I of Meiosis, a process called <u>synapsis</u> occurs. Synapsis is the process where homologous chromosomes pair up.  Within this process, sister chromatids cross-over at certain points, and these points are called chiasmata. Chiasmata is just the plural of chiasma. In these points, the chromatids intertwine and exchange genetic material through a process called, cross-over.
