Answer:
DNA from a gene of interest can be inserted into a plasmid, then the modified plasmid can be inserted into a bacterial cell to replicate a gene of interest many times.
Explanation:
Plasmids are the extra-chromosomal circular DNA present in bacterial cells. Plasmids are able to replicate themselves independent of genetic DNA. Their ability to self replicate allows them to maintain themselves in the bacterial cells. This is why plasmids are used as cloning vectors in recombinant DNA technology.
A gene of interest is isolated from the donor cell and is inserted into the plasmid. The recombinant plasmid is introduced into bacterial cells where it replicates the ligated desired gene and allows the gene cloning. For example, the human insulin gene is ligated with plasmid and the recombinant plasmid is introduced in <em>E. coli</em> where it replicates the human insulin gene and allows the production of desired copies of the gene.
Let 'C' denote the dominant trait of eye-crossing and 'c' denote the recessive trait of not being able to cross the eyes. The genotype of the father is heterozygous dominant for the trait of eye-crossing. This is denoted by 'Cc'. The mother is homozygous recessive for the trait of eye-crossing, denoted by 'cc'. The mating between the two will result in following genotypes: two of 'Cc' and two of 'cc'. Therefore the probability that the child will be able to cross his or her eyes is 0.5 or 50%.
