The developer's plan would affect the salamanders that live in the woodlot by taking away their vernal pool, the lack of a vernal pool would mean that the salamanders would have no place to mate and lay their eggs. This would result in a drastic reduction of salamanders in the area.
Answer:
DNA vaccines consist of DNA vectors or plasmids (small double-stranded DNA rings originally derived from bacteria, but unable to cause infection) into which the genes encoding one or more immunizing proteins of the infectious agent have been inserted causing the disease to be prevented.
Explanation:
Vectors are the functional unit of naked DNA vaccines. Genes that encode the proteins of interest and are of bacterial origin are inserted into these vectors. Bacterial plasmids are circular DNA molecules that self-replicate extrachromosomally in bacteria. The genes encoded in these plasmids are under the control of promoters, almost always of viral origin. When a plasmid is introduced into the cell it translocates to the nucleus, where transcription of the transgene begins; the transcripts are then taken to the cytoplasm and translated there. The newly synthesized proteins are degraded in the proteasome to 8-10 amino acid peptides, which are transported to the endoplasmic reticulum. Peptides of high affinity with their respective MHC I molecule stabilize and enter the secretory pathway, thus reaching the cell surface, where they are coupled with the T-lymphocyte receptor (TcR) present on the surface of T lymphocytes cytotoxic drugs (CD8 +) to induce their activation.
The four laws or principles that are involved with the study of Stratigraphy are the following:
1. Principle of original horizontality
2. Law of superposition
3. Law of crosscutting relationships
4. Principle of Lateral Continuity
5. Principle of Faunal Succession
6. The Law of inclusions
Therefore, the correct answers would be 1, 2 and 4. Hope this answer helps.
