Answer:

DNA restriction enzymes cut the DNA molecule, while DNA ligases join the resulting DNA fragments

Explanation:

Transformation is a naturally occurring process by which bacteria incorporate exogenous genetic material from their surrounding environment. This process (transformation) is used for DNA cloning via plasmid vectors. In DNA cloning, transformation occurs after restriction enzymes cut the DNA at specific sequences named palindromic sequences (i.e, sequences that can be read the same in opposite direction). Restriction enzymes can generate sticky-ends, where enzymes make staggered cuts in the two strands (e.g., <em>BamH</em>), or blunt ends, where the resulting strands are of the same length (e.g., <em>HaeIII</em>). In general, sticky-end enzymes are more useful because they generate a 3' overhang in one molecule and a complementary 5' overhang in the other, increasing the yield and specificity of ligation. During ligation, a DNA ligase is used to join both DNA strands by forming phosphodiester bonds in the plasmid. Following transformation, bacteria can be selected on antibiotic plates.

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

0%

Explanation:

Achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder that is expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous dominant genotypes. Since two affected parents have a normal girl child, both the parents should be heterozygous carrier for the disease.  Let's assume that the dominant allele "A" is responsible for the disease. Genotype of both the parents of the girl would be "Aa". The genotype of girl with normal stature is "aa". Genotype of her normal partner is "aa".

A cross betwee aa X aa would get all the progeny with "aa" genotype. Therefore, all of their children would have normal stature and there is 0% probability for them to have a child with achondroplasia.

Answer:

The best way to approach this type of problem is to use the "complement method" ...  

P(positive result) = 1 - P(negative result)  

= 1 - (1 - 0.03)^3  

= 1 - 0.97^3 = 0.087327 or 8.7%
