Which is most likely the result of genetic engineering?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Genetic engineering is the process of manually adding new DNA or genetic material to an organism. The latest example of genetic engineering is immunotherapy. Healthy white blood cells are genetically modified to target a specific type of cancer. These modified cells are then injected into a person with this specific type of cancer. These cells then target the cancer cells and destroy them. This immunotherapy is more advanced than Chemotherapy as it only targets the rogue cells, not all the cells.

The duck-billed platypus has 52 chromosomes in its body cells. When the platypus's body cells divide by mitosis, how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have?

Answers

Answer: 52

Explanation:

Mitosis can be defined as an inevitable part of the cell cycle when the replicated chromosomes are divided into nuclei.

After cell division, genetically identical cells are produced in which the number of chromosomes are restored.

There is no change in the number of chromosomes after this process and the 52 chromosomes will remain the same.

Any change during this process can lead to apoptosis or mutation.

52
body cells = 52
mitosis = body cells

Students going on field trip noticed that boys from the football team were able to walk for a long time without getting tired while other students got tired easily......what would be the hypothesis to that?

Answers

Answer:

Footballers are uses to exercising their body so walking for a long time will not affect them because when they practise everyday for the football practice their body is already used to such exercise and so walking is very easy for them....I hope this answers your question...Thank you for the question.

Which traits make fungi more related to animals than to plants?heterotrophic, chitin in cell walls
autotrophic, cellulose in cell walls
vascular tissues, heterotrophic
vascular tissues, autotrophic

Answers

Answer: heterotrophic, chitin in cell walls

Fungi is a group of eukaryotic organisms, which can be grouped into Kingdom of Fungi. This kingdom includes organisms ranging from small microorganisms such as yeast and molds to large mushrooms. The fungi are different from plants, animals and bacteria as they possess chitin in their cell walls. However, these organisms can be more related to animals rather than to plants as they cannot produce their own food by the process of photosynthesis like plants. These organisms are dependent upon other organisms and their dead remains to obtain their food.

Answer:

The correct answer is heterotrophic and chitin in cell walls.

Explanation:

Fungi refer to a kingdom of eukaryotic, heterotrophic species like the animals, as they attain their food from other species. That is, by captivating nutrients from the environment, either from the non-living or living organic matter. This is due to the fact that they do not contain chlorophyll pigment, unlike plants that are autotrophic in nature, as they produce their own food.

The fungi are non-vascular in nature, as they do not possess vascular tissues like phloem and xylem, unlike the plants. The cell wall of fungi is mainly formed of chitin, unlike plants that comprise cellulose in their cell walls.

What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?

Answers

Correct answer is:

$C_(6)H_(12)O_6+6O_(2)\Rightarrow 6CO_(2)+6H_(2)O+energy$

But how to get there?

Let's start with simple explanation of what exactly is cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration is a multistage biochemical oxidation process of organic substances when prime product is energy (ATP - adenosine triphosphate) and other are released waste products.

Cellular respiration takes place even if other metabolic processes are stopped, but cellular respiration may differ in particular organism groups.

Some reactions during whole process of cellular respiration are similar in all types of living organisms.

Cellular respiration is prime indication of declining living processes.

Only viruses which are on the edge of living organism and chemical particle are not performing cellular respiration.

But to the point :P

In cellular respiration all substrates which are in the cell might be organic, but mostly we are using sugar oxidation - glucose in the presence of oxygen.

Chemical formula of sugar looks like this:

$C_(6)H_(12)O_6$

Oxygen is just $O_2$

so for now we have just part of the equation:

$C_(6)H_(12)O_6+O_(2)\Rightarrow$

But what would be on the right hand side?

It's quite simple, remember equation of full combustion? If we want to burn something we need oxygen like in the equation, so the product of this equation would be carbon dioxide, water and of course energy (ATP).

Carbon dioxide formula looks like this:

$CO_(2)$

As a reminder water formula:

$H_(2)O$

Full formula would look like that:

$C_(6)H_(12)O_6+O_(2)\Rightarrow\ CO_(2)+H_(2)O+energy$

But still as you see this equation is unbalanced, after balancing it would like that:

$C_(6)H_(12)O_6+6O_(2)\Rightarrow 6CO_(2)+6H_(2)O+energy$

At the end I would like to explain one more thing. Energy which has been released during this process is part of high-energy connection which might be used to perform chemical reactions in the cell or to move organism for example in muscles. We need to remember that production of ATP is not happening with 100% efficiency and part of this energy is released as heat.

$C_(6) H_(12) O_(6) +6O_(2) ---\ \textgreater \ 6CO_(2) +6H_(2) O+ENRGY$

What type of fertilization requires a great excess of egg and sperm gametes because most are wasted? a.external fertilization
b.internal fertilization
c.pollination

Answers

b.internal fertilization

Sexual reproduction provides genetic variation because the sperm and egg that are produced contain different combinations of genes than the parent organism. Sexual reproduction involves meiosis which is the process of a cell doubling its DNA, shuffling its genes and then dividing the shuffled DNA among four cells.Each resulting cell, or gamete from meiosis has only half the amount of DNA as the parent cell. So in order to form a new organism, two gametes, sperm and egg, must fuse, further mixing the genes to produce more genetic variation.

just wanted to let you all know that the answer isnt b..... chose that and got it wrong. have a good day yall!
