The vector that would be the
best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy is adeno-associated virus for it
has valuable reasons. First, it is huge enough to carry the gene, second, it
will infect the right type of tissue, third, it will not cause an immune
response and lastly, it infects the particular cells that divide irregularly. Therefore,
this vector will definitely treat cystic fibrosis for it can target affected
cells, which is a great help in the normal functioning of an organ.
Answer:
Exocytosis
Explanation:
Exocytosis refers to a cellular process in which the large molecules are transported out of the cell by the membrane-bound vesicles.
The process of exocytosis is an active process and is therefore driven by the ATP. The process of exocytosis is possible because of the fusion of the secretory vesicle with the plasma membrane which leads to the release of the material outside of the cell.
Thus, exocytosis is the correct answer.
Answer:
Gene- DNA - Chromosome- Nucleus
Explanation:
A gene is a sequence of nucleotide bases that specifies certain products; RNA or proteins. It is the segment of DNA that holds the information to build and maintain an organisms cell and also pass genetic traits to offsprings. Hence, it is the molecular unit of heredity in living organisms.
The DNA is a long double-helical structure that stores the genetic information in our cells. It consists of two long polynucleotide chains composed of the four nucleotides subunits (A,C,G,T).
In order for the long strand of DNA to fit into the cell's nucleus, it is coiled around certain proteins called HISTONES to form Chromatin, which undergoes further coiling and organization to to linear CHROMOSOMES.
The chromosomes are structured within the nucleus, that are made up of the cell's genetic material (DNA). In eukaryotic cells, the nucleus houses the cell's DNA and directs protein synthesis (expression of the information encoded by genes).
The correct answer is option A, that is, Phylum Porifera.
The species of Phylum Porifera are aquatic, that is, mostly marine. They exhibit cellular grade of the body, they are diploblastic animals with asymmetrical symmetry. They lack body cavity and exhibits a holozoic mode of nutrition with intracellular digestion.
They lack circulatory and nervous system and possess the tendency to regenerate their parts of the body. The organisms in phylum Porifera exhibits both asexual and sexual mode of reproduction.
