Compare and contrast the technologies of using recombinant DNA and gene therapy?
Gene therapy is a treatment of disease by replacing genes. Recombinant DNA is a DNA resulting from gene-linking. That is when a DNA extracted from two or more different sources such as genes from different organisms and joined together to form a single molecule or fragment.
How can tools of molecular biology be used to compare the DNA of two individuals?
this is lame
Can be used to compare the amount of radioactively labeled DNA in two or more samples?
Scintillation counter
Name two common uses for DNA testing?
DNA fingerprinting, and testing for alleles.
What is the difference from DNA nucleotide and DNA polymer?
A nucleotide is a single structural unit of DNA. If two or more nucleotides are combined together by a polymerase enzyme, the resulting molecule is a polymer. RNA is also composed of nucleotides and can be formed into polymers.

DNA from two different organisms that has been cut up and recombined so that the resulting strand contains DNA from both organisms is refereed to as?
Recombinant DNA.

How do you compare DNA to a zipper?
Like a zipper a DNA molecule has two "spines" and jutting out "teeth" that lock together to join the spines. When DNA replicates, it "unzips".
Can be used to compare the amount of radioactively labeled DNA in two or more samples?
Scintillation counter
A technique that can be used to compare the DNA of two or more plants is?
Gel electrophoresis
Compare the number of replication forks in prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA during replication?
Prokaryotic DNA is reproduced with DNA Polymerases replication forks.
If you compare the original DNA to the two copies that are made after replication occurs what would you find?
Unless mutation occur the two copies of DNA that are made after replication are identical to its original form. Thus continuous replication of DNA in the chromosomes does not alter its nature.

DNA fingerprinting, and testing for alleles.
How does a DNA structure help it make a copy?
The double-stranded DNA is itself the information, coded in linear-sequence form, that is READ and REPLICATED into the two resulting duplicated double-strands.
How many DNA fragments result from 2 site digestion?
Three in eukaryotes and two in prokaryotes. Think of it this way: suppose you had a string and you cut it in two different places. How many resulting strings would you have? The difference in eukaryotes and prokaryotes is due to the shape of DNA - in eukaryotes, DNA is linear; in prokaryotes, DNA is circular.
What is the difference from DNA nucleotide and DNA polymer?
A nucleotide is a single structural unit of DNA. If two or more nucleotides are combined together by a polymerase enzyme, the resulting molecule is a polymer. RNA is also composed of nucleotides and can be formed into polymers.
