One advantage of having a cloned flock

Answers

Answer:

Producing transgenic animals has practical advantages, such as using less than half of experimental animals for the production of an envelope.

Explanation:

Currently it is only possible to add genes, the transgenic sheep that exist are found to produce human proteins. However, it is convenient for some proteins to remove endogenous proteins from milk. For example, for human serum albumin.

There is a high demand for some human proteins for the treatment of various diseases. Small quantities can be produced in cell cultures but the cost is very high. Higher amounts can be made by bacteria or yeasts, but proteins are difficult to purify and that is why some of the advantages of having transgenic animals is the amount of protein produced.

it eliminates certain genetic diseases or bad traits for the flock.

Answers

Answer:

scientific website

Explanation:

Gray water can be defined as the household wastewater which comes out from bath water or showers, laundry water, lavatory (basin) water, and untreated kitchen and washroom water.

But by treating these gray water we can save a lot of water and the water can be made to use for other purposes such as for gardening or other things which do not require clean water. But cleaning or treatment methods of such water is very expensive.

So this information can be a useful source for a scientific website where such different treatment methods of gray water may be published.

Based on this diagram explain how the mutation in the DNA sequence affects protein synthesis ?

Answers

The mutation in DNA causes the changes in  enzymes to read the DNA sequence incorrectly or unable to read the sequences. So, the sequence will code for the wrong amino acid by the process of translation, and not make the correct protein.

What are the components of translation?

protein synthesis can be defined as the process in which amino acid sequence can be formed from m RNA sequence, means the nucleotide sequence encode amino acid called as the genetic code.  

Translation occur in cytoplasm, it involves in transportation of amino acid to the ribosome and form polypeptide chain, one translator  conducts the translation and another is substrate where the mRNA is translated into a new protein

Ribosomes have the  major component responsible for of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and proteins, these rRNA  peptidyl transferase bind to the large subunit with three active sites (E, P, A) of amino acids which are responsible for  catalytic activity.
