The enzymes being used to cut the vector open allowing the insertion of the gene of interest. Once the gene has integrated into the host plasmid it can grown in a media conducive to which ever particular strain of bacteria it is. As the transformed bacteria grow in colonies each cell will possesses the gene that was inserted. Now there is a large quantity of "cloned" genes which can be isolated back out and examined. - Rough summary-

Function of restriction enzymes?

They cut strands of DNA at specific sites.


What comes after purpose?

After purpose, an individual may consider setting goals or taking action to fulfill that purpose. This could involve creating a plan, making decisions, and taking steps towards achieving their ultimate objective or fulfilling their life's purpose.


Is cloning by sexual reproduction?

No. Sexual reproduction involves a fusion of the nuclear contents of one gamete (say, a sperm), with the nuclear contents of another gamete (say, an egg). The resulting cell has two alleles, or versions of a gene, for every gene in the (nuclear) genome. This cell (a zygote) thus has a full diploid nuclear genome, having derived half of its genes from its father and half from its mother. During cloning (at least during somatic cell nuclear transfer, which is one type of cloning method), a full diploid nucleus from a somatic cell is transferred to an egg cell that has had its nucleus entirely removed. In this way, all of the nuclear genes come from one individual- whoever the nucleus of the somatic cell's owner was. So, to reword, during sexual reproduction, half the genome comes from the mom and half from the dad, but during cloning, the whole genome comes from one individual, but gets put into an egg that has been emptied (or, enucleated).


What is the purpose of a child tracking device?

The purpose of a child tracking device is to know where your child is at all times. This device can come in handy when it comes to missing children or in the event that your child might be in danger.


Is cloning animals different from cloning humans?

cloning could cause birth defect If cloned babies start showing up in hospital nurseries, scientists predict that they will be hooked up to respirators because their hearts and lungs will have been deformed. Feeding tubes also might be necessary for infants who have brain damage and cannot suckle. Others might have extensive physical abnormalities. Even those born with a normal appearance probably would experience epilepsy, autism or behavioral abnormalities. Cloning allows man to tamper with genetics in human beingsreproduction of undesirable traits"All of the data on animal cloning demonstrates exceptionally high rates of fetal loss, abortion (and) neonatal deaths, and many cloned animals have devastating birth defects," says Gerald Schatten, vice chairman of obstetrics, gynecology and reproductive science at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine."When people are working with farm animals or laboratory mice and there is a newborn that is suffering, veterinarians can euthanize the animal. Are people who are attempting to clone humans going to euthanize suffering children?"

Why restriction enzyme cannot cut its own DNA?

Restriction enzymes are produced by bacteria to help destroy foreign, invading DNA, such as the DNA of bacteriophage (a virus that infects bacterial cells). Every restriction enzyme comes with a methylase enzyme, or more specifically, a DNA methyltransferase. The methylase enzyme methylates (adds a methyl group) to the restriction endonuclease site on the cell's own DNA, which protects the sites from the restriction enzyme so that it does not degrade its own DNA.
