What is the genetic makeup AAA BB called?
The genetic makeup AAA BB is called its genotype. It is defined as the genetic makeup of an organism or group of organisms with reference to a single trait, set of traits, or an entire complex of traits.
How is cell division important to a single called organism?
Cell division is how a single-celled organism reproduces.
A single organism in an environment called?
A single organism in an environment is called an individual
What is genetic transformation of an organism?
Single-cell organisms are linked to genetic transformation, they acquires new genetic material from the environment
When a single-called organism reproduces by making an exact copy of its genetic material and then divides where the offspring has all of the parents traits?
Meiosis
Biologists change the DNA code of a living organism through what?
This is known as mutagenesis. This can be achieved in a number of ways, in either a controlled or random manner. Random mutagenesis can be achieved through exposure to UV light or free radicals such as hydrogen peroxide, which would create different mutations in each cell. Controlled mutagenesis can be performed to ensure that all organisms (single- or multi-celled) have the same genetic makeup. One method to modify DNA in a controlled manner involves the use of modified viruses.
A single cell organism is also called?
A single celled organism is called unicellular.
If the genetic material of a cell is organized in a single circular chromosome the organism is .?
a bacteria
When a single cell organism divides to produce two new organisms with exactly the same genetic material as the parent the method of reproduction is called what?
Mitosis
What has genetic engineering not been able to do?
Clone a human from a single cell of an adult human.
When a single celled organism divides to produce two new organisms with exactly the same genetic material as the parent the method of reproduction is called?
asexual reproduction
Which of these single-celled organisms are often used as hosts in genetic engineering?
Possibly,Escherichia coli
