What way can DNA segments be changed such that genes are altered or mutated?
Genes are altered in a process known as Mutation
What is the importance of polymerase chain reaction?
The importance of the polymerase chain reaction is that it continuously produces countless copies of DNA sequences in the body. Also, scientists can extract genes in order to find out more about your genes.
When genes from one organism are placed into the cells of another organism what is this called?
That depends on what the other organism is. When DNA is inserted into a prokaryote (E. Coli for example), we call it transformation. When DNA is inserted into a eukaryoate (yeast or human cells for example), we call it transfection.
How is DNA manipulated?
Chemical mutagens are used to change DNA sequences, (bacterial) enzymes are used to cut and copy DNA, and repressors are used to prevent the expression of genes.
The triplet codes needed to specify a specific polypeptide chain are found in the?
Triplet codes are found in genes (DNA).
What is transferable genes?
Gene transfer is when unrelated genetic information is inserted into cells. This is in the form of DNA.
How has DNA technology allowed science to examine modify and identify genes and their functions in genetic engineering?
DNA technology has allowed scientists to identify what specific genes do and insert those genes into other organisms to create a new trait in the organism it is inserted in.
How are molecular biologists identify genes in sequences of DNA?
by rna polymerase chain reaction
What way can DNA segments be changed such that genes are altered or mutated?
Genes are altered in a process known as Mutation
In sexual reproduction a line of genes on a DNA chain from a mother is paired with a matching chain from the father In a baby that develops from the two gene contributors the pairs of traits on its?
"In sexual reproduction, a line of genes on a DNA chain from a mother is paired with a matahing chain from the fater In a baby that develops from the two gene contributors, the pairs of traits on its DNA will?" the answer is: result from recombining traits from the mother and father
What is DNA used for in a cell?
some DNA in chromosomes contains of genes.!!
Are genes in DNA or are DNA in geans?
genes are in DNA
DNA is used to form bonds between the inserted gene and the plasmid DNA?
ligase
What is the relationship between chromosomes and genes and between genes and DNA?
Chromosomes contain genes which are segments of DNA.
What is the importance of polymerase chain reaction?
The importance of the polymerase chain reaction is that it continuously produces countless copies of DNA sequences in the body. Also, scientists can extract genes in order to find out more about your genes.
Which molecule from humans is inserted into bacteria to cause them to produce insulin?
No. When genes from humans are inserted into bacteria, the bacteria acts as factories that produce chemicals of importance to humans, such as insulin.
When genes from one organism are placed into the cells of another organism what is this called?
That depends on what the other organism is. When DNA is inserted into a prokaryote (E. Coli for example), we call it transformation. When DNA is inserted into a eukaryoate (yeast or human cells for example), we call it transfection.
