A mutagenic agent is any chemical, physical or biological compost that can induce a mutation in the cell's DNA, making this mutation pass to the next generation.
Mutagenic agents are widely used in the fields of biotechnology, genetic engineering, medicine and agroindustry. This is because these agents have helped in the advancement and development of new technological tools.
In genetic research some bacteria and viruses are used by agribusiness companies to obtain transgenic beings. These mutagenic (biological) agents act as vectors of laboratory-created genes that will insert these genes into an organism to be modified. It could be, for example, a gene that will improve maize resistance against a pest. Thanks to mutagenic agents, this genetic information can be passed on to the organism, in this case, the plant.
The answer is C. The strands are identical.
Answer:
a) epigenetic change.
Explanation:
Epigenetic is referred to changes BESIDES the changes in the genetic changes. It means, not related to mutations but to chemical changes such as methylation, acetylation, ubiquitylation, phosphorylation, that can interfere with the genetic expression. Chromatin modification is another way of epigenetic change.
Answer:
fluid.
Explanation:
because there molecules can freely move and take the shape of any container
Answer:
A) birds have a large opening where the beak should be.
Explanation:
when scientists turn off the gene that makes beaks in birds, the birds have a mouth where no teeth are present. The birds have mouth because the bird resembles and closely related to the dinosaur. There are some proteins that is responsible for the occurrence of beak but when the genes are turn off these protein stop producing that leads to turn the beak place into mouth.
