What is gene transfer through embryo injection?

the transfer of gene to the embryo in order to produce transgenic offspring is known as gene transfer through embryo.


What is the difference between horizontal gene transfer and vertical gene transfer?

Horizontal gene transfer involves the transfer of genetic material between different organisms, such as bacteria exchanging genes through processes like transformation, transduction, or conjugation. Vertical gene transfer refers to the transmission of genes from parents to offspring, typically through sexual reproduction in eukaryotic organisms.


What is the difference between lateral and vertical gene transfer?

Lateral gene transfer is the process of genetic transfer of (mostly) resistance genes through plasmids among bacteria while vertical gene transfer is the transfer of genetic materials that are passed down from parent organism to offspring from one generation to another.


What is a gene transfer?

Gene transfer refers to the movement of genetic material from one organism to another. This can happen naturally through processes like reproduction or through artificial methods such as genetic engineering techniques. Gene transfer is important for the evolution of species and for the development of biotechnology products.


Did Avery and his colleagues think that the molecule required a transformation might also be a molecule of the gene?

Yes, Avery and his colleagues believed that the molecule responsible for the transfer of genetic information in their experiments with pneumonia-causing bacteria (the transforming principle) could be the molecule of the gene. They identified DNA as the molecule responsible for genetic transformation.


What type of molecule is produced as the primary link between a gene and the expression of a trait?

Transfer RNAs or tRNAs for short.


What is a segment of a DNA molecule that carries the instructions for producing a specific trait?

A gene is a segment of a DNA molecule that carries the instructions for producing a specific trait. It provides the information needed for the synthesis of proteins or functional RNA molecules that contribute to the expression of that trait.


Why does a gene fit into the opening in the plasmid?

The gene fits into the opening in the plasmid because the ends of the gene and the plasmid have been cut by specific enzymes to create complementary "sticky ends" that can bind together. This process is known as ligation, which joins the gene and the plasmid together to create a recombinant DNA molecule.


How do different organisms have the same subset of genes?

Different organisms can have the same subset of genes through processes like gene duplication, vertical gene transfer, and lateral gene transfer. Gene duplication can lead to multiple copies of the same gene in different organisms. Vertical gene transfer involves the inheritance of genes from a common ancestor. Lateral gene transfer allows organisms to acquire genes from other species, leading to the sharing of genetic material among organisms.


What is produced when gene transcription occurs?

During gene transcription, an RNA molecule is produced by copying the DNA sequence of a gene. This RNA molecule can be further processed into messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), or other types of functional RNA molecules that carry out various cellular functions.


What is agrobacterium mediated gene transfer?

transfer of gene with the help of Ti plasmid present in Agrobacterium which has T-dna region by which gene van transfer.
