How do the lower pelvic arteries in human differ from those in cat?
Lower pelvic arteries differ from human from those of a cat in many different ways from the way the cat and human can go through labor and how the human and the cat can carry the babies of kittens are very different.
What will a bacterium produce when a human gene is added to its genome?
the human protein coded for by the human gene
What bacterium causes AIDS?
AIDS is not caused by bacterium. It is caused by a virus called HIV (human immunodeficiency virus)
What is a bacterium that needs oxygen?
A bacterium that needs oxygen is called an aerobic bacterium
Is chlamydia the same as Chlamydomonas?
No, chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis, while Chlamydomonas is a genus of green algae commonly found in freshwater environments. They are not related and have different characteristics and effects on human health.
What bacterium maintains human health by aiding in digestion?
Escherichia coli
Why is it necessary for bacteria to be able to withstand fluctuations in temperature within the human body?
A bacterium's cell membrane allows it to withstand fluctuations in temperature within the human body. This is necessary in order for the bacterium to survive in that environment.
Is bacterium a broad spectrum antibiotic?
There is no antibiotic called as bacterium. So there is no question of it's being called as broad spectrum or narrow spectrum antibiotic. Bacterium is a term related to bacteria, a type of micro-organism.
Why is the bacterium now able to make insulin?

What kind of bacterium would be most likely found in the human stomach?

They belong to different domains of life - E. coli is a prokaryotic bacterium, while E. coli is a eukaryotic amoeba.
What happens when a scientists puts a normal human insulin gene in the DNA of a bacterium?
The insulin is slowly transformed into the bacterium as C6H12O6 is combined with the insulin to create this product. I know, I'm a biologist.
Why is a bacterium still functional after human DNA is placed in it?
Because no vital DNA is taken out of the bacterium and also these bacteria do not die easily. A subtle protrusion through the cell membrane will not killl the bacteria.
