What is meant by the statement you live in the Age of the Gene?
People are constantly being informed of yet another complex human characteristic or trait linked to a newly discovered gene. Also that genes have become an important aspect of human and agricultural life.
What is meant by gene knockout testing?
A knockout organism is an organism that's missing a functioning gene. They're used to test the function of genes and genetic diseases, because a researcher can observe specific changes in a gene knockout organism's gene expression and traits.
Why do some plasmids contain a gene for resistance to antibiotic?
Plasmid contain a few genes including antibiotic resistance genes .Bacteria are highly active metabolically and many mutation are produced in them . These genes are produced by evolution.
What main goal of the human genome project is to?
It was meant toidentify all the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA,determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA
What is meant by triparental mating?
Triparental mating is a method that is used to transfer plasmids from E.coli into other bacterial species. For example, to identify genes involved in utilization of methanol as a carbon source Methylobacterium the following procedure is followed:1) create or isolate cells that cannot utilize MeOH as a carbon source (MeOH-)- these cells
Are chromosomes and genes the same or not in the original cell?
Your question is not clear. If you meant to ask, "Do chromosomes and genes remain the same in the original cell? (i.e. after cell division)" then yes.
What is meant by recession?
Recessive epistasis yields and typical 9:3:4 ration in the second filial cross. The epistatic gene if present in homozygous recessive form will stop the expression of the hypostatic dominant allele. This is typically seen for biochemical pathways where the the epistatic gene produces a product which is further converted by the hypostatic gene.
What is the structure in DNA?
A DNA structure is basically what genes are meant to be the dna model stands for deoxribosenuleic acid
In Pokemon HeartGold how do you talk to lance?
You should never have a problem in talking to him if you are meant to at that point in the game, if you are wondering whether you can randomly find/talk to him at your will then the answer is no.
What is meant by chromosome?
A chromosomal abnormality occurs when any of the genes that make up a human, animal, or plant has a genetic mutation.
What is meant by genotype?
A genotype is the genetic make up of a living being.I t posses a particular set of genes gained from the parents.
What does it mean when a man randomly tells you it wasn't meant to be between you?
im sorry to say this but it means he wants to break up with you wnat would you mean if you said that
Three critical things that genes were known to do?
There are three critical things that the genes are meant to perform. They are carrying the gene to the next generation, replication of genetic information and find the organisms' heritable characteristics.
An expressed gene is one that?
is transcribed into RNA. Promoters (I think that's what you meant, right?) don't function as genes; they stand as a signal for RNA polymerase to begin transcription of the actual gene, which begins about 25 base pairs downstream of the promoter region in eukaryotic DNA. Expressed genes DO code for proteins, but not all protein-coding genes are expressed. For example, the cells in your heart contain genes that code for proteins needed only in your liver. While those genes definitely code for proteins, they're not expressed. Expressed genes (and non-expressed genes, Ke$ha Looks like a man, for that matter) are made of DNA, not mRNA.
What mutagen causes breast cancer?
Well the onco genes are BRCA-I and BRCA-II if mutated they cause breast cancer, I think that is what you meant, if not then you may have learned something new anyway
Are a person's genes or upbringing more important?
Upbringing, if parental care is meant, influences personality little, but other things, like overall happiness, are important products of parental care. The environment, especially the unique environment, is as important as the genes in all human traits. It is not a dichotomy and it is nature via nurture. What we measure is the squared variance from the mean, the differences in influence. We do not measure and can not measure the positive weight of either genes or environment influencing people.
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.
