Answer:

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes refer to enzymes that is produced by a bacteria which has the ability to cleaves DNA property to a specific restriction sequence site within the molecule.

Restriction enzyme is use to cut DNA into smaller fragments by preventing the replication of the phage DNA .

Restriction enzyme is use when there is infection or foreign materials that intrude into a bacterium,the bacterium uses it to defend itself against infections that might be cause by viruses, pathogens e.t.c.

Bacteria genome can be edited using CRISPR method. It is done with recombineering, which is a technique that uses phage recombination method to enhance homologous recombination of DNA fragments.

1. How are Lipids and Fatty Acids similar? How are they different? Use evidence

Eduardwww [97]

Explanation:

Similar: Fatty acids are generally long chains of hydrocarbons with a carboxylic acid group at one of the ends. While Lipids are polymers of fatty acids with a nonpolar hydrocarbon chain and a small polar oxygen group.

Different: Fats are actually a type of lipid. Lipids are a major class of biochemical compounds that includes oils as well as fats. Organisms use lipids to store energy and for many other uses. Lipid molecules consist mainly of repeating units called fatty acids.

Which statements explain reasons why unconformities occur? Check all that apply. Rocks along a fault break and move. Igneous roc

Viefleur [7K]

Rocks erode and sediment is deposited, and No sediment is deposited over a long time.

Explanation:

The most common reason for the formation of uncomformity is erosion. The times of formation of the rocks above and below the uncomformity are different when no sediment is deposited over a long time.

The rock above the uncomformity are younger than the rocks below the uncomformity. Types of uncomformity are angular uncomformity, discomformity and non comformity.

In angular discomformity horizontal sedimentary rock layers are formed above sedimentary rock layers that are in tilted position. Discomformity lies between two horizontal sedimentary rock layers. Non comformity lies between sedimentary and igneous rock layers or metamorphic rocks.
