Scientists used the amino acid code to find the DNA base sequence,
i.e. they worked backwards from mRNA to DNA.
They figured out the DNA sequence from the amino acid sequence- APEX
they figured out the dna sequence from the amino acid sequence

What number is closest to the number of different genes in a human body cell?
It was expected that we will find out about 1,00,00 different genes before Human genome mapping was done. In fact, we could find lesser number. Different books give different number but number is probably between 20,000 to 25,000. We got psychological depression, when we found same number of genes in round worm also.
The Human Genome Project was begun in 1988 by scientists from 13 nations as a worldwide effort to understand the sequencing of all of the DNA in the human body What is one potential scientific benefit?
"It will help find the genes responsible for many diseases."
Where is a genes location along a chromosome?
Yes. That is how geneticists map genomes to find which genes you have
Where can you find a scientist?
Well if you go two Alberta Calgary science center you will find a real scientist Hope that helps :)
What is George Mendel known as?
=george mendel was a scientist/botanist/physican and the one who discovered something about cells/was a goood physictian=
How many genes did scientist find in DNA?
20,000 to 25,000
Where in the human body would you find the glands that secrets insulin?
sugar/glucosePancreas is the structure in the human body that is the usual source of insulin
Why is it important to isolate and clone diseased gene?
Scientist must isolate and clone diseased genes in order to study them. A clone of the gene allows scientist to find an exact cure.
Why can bacteria express human genes?
It is my understanding that often eukariotic (multicellular organisms like humans) genes do not "work"(that is, cannot be translated) in prokariotes(bacteria) because bacteria are very very simple compaired to eukaria. Eukaria have complecated structures and mechanisms for the transcription and translation of DNA, bacteria only have plasmids and ribosomes. However, we have been able to get bacteria to use some human genes, most notably the gene to make insulin. Because eukariotic DNA has introns(random, useless segments of DNA) that are removed by special machinery before it is transcribed, scientists must remove all of the introns before inserting the DNA into the bacteria. They do this by obtaining mRNA from a human before it is transcribed in the ribosome, and using the enzyme reverse transcriptase(an enzyme in retroviruses such as HIV) to reverse transcribe the mRNA into cDNA("complementary" DNA that does not contain introns). cDNA can be spliced into a bacterium, and we can often make the genes "work" in bacteria. To answer the question, the genetic code is the same in every organism, so we can make human genes work in bacteria.

What do you think about the human genome project?
Human Genome Project(HGP) was started in 1985.Actually it was planned for 15 years.But due to advancement in science and technology,it was completed within 13 years.It was planned to completely identify the structure and function of all the estimated 1,00,000 genes in human body.But only function of 30,000 genes was known.It is quite good idea,Since the results are very useful in further improvement of biomedical technology.Also scientists got an accurate idea about function,structure and effect of genes on human body.,which helped them to continue future research.
In 2003 what was achieved by the human genome project?
The human genome project began in 1990, and this project was to find the complete sequence of genes in a human. The goal of this project was to identify all genes in the human body, this meant as much as mapping out 3 billion base pairs of nucleotides in our DNA. It was completed in 2003 and this now allows for further development in biological diseases and also gives us a thorough analysis in human Biology.
How do your genes or DNA help us adapt and survive?
It helps us survive by if we get lost or mixed mached by two diffrent sets of parents by taking DNA and gene from us and find out who has the same type of genes and DNA. a scientist lol just joking
How did scientist find the human gene that's makes insulin?
Scientists used the amino acid code to find the DNA base sequence,i.e. they worked backwards from mRNA to DNA.They figured out the DNA sequence from the amino acid sequence- APEXthey figured out the dna sequence from the amino acid sequence
What is a visham?
it is unknown to tell u the truth,if u read this u have to read "is visham human?" to understand what this is. visham is not known in the human society,scientist are trying to find out what he is.
How can you get the molar mass of insulin knowing just the grams of insulin in a sample and the number of molecules that that sample contains?
by weighing out the bit of insulin that you want to find how much of it there is
What is gene mapping?
dont trip gene mapping is a procedure by which you find out what type of genes are present in the chromosomes of a living organism. you identify the location of genes also. for example the gene mapping of human was completed in 2001-2003 because humans have 45 chromosomes and approximately 35000 genes. so to identify such a large amount of genes and to find out their location, the scientists of the world distributed the task among themselves but still it took several years!!
