<h3>How is recombinant DNA produced?</h3>

Obtaining recombinant DNA is based on the molecular cloning technique. The process can be summarized as follows:

  1. The first step is to isolate a DNA fragment, which contains the gene of interest. Remember that each gene makes a protein.
  2. The gene of interest, now isolated, is placed in a medium with a fragment of circular bacterial DNA, the plasmid and the restriction enzymes.
  3. The bacterial plasmid has the ability to insert a fragment of DNA external to its own genome.

<h3>What is DNA and what is it for?</h3>

DNA is the structure responsible for the transmission of all genetic characteristics — such as eye, skin and hair color, physiognomy, among others — in the process of reproduction of living beings. Thus, the main function of DNA is to transport information contained in its sequences, called genes.

Similarities between water borne diseases and water washed diseases
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water washed disease are diseased that occur due to lack of water for proper personal use.

Often common in areas with predominantly poor people.

Water borne diseases are disease that are are transmitted by pathogens and micro organisms in water. Bacteria and protozoan are major carriers of water borne disease. When exposes to contaminated water one could get the disease from there.

Both water borne and water washed diseased are characterized by pathogens and micro organism.

They both result in serious medical condition that requires treatment via drug administration.

Lack of proper hygiene can result in both water washed and water borne disease.
