Just as each human has their own unique DNA, each strain of bacteria shares their own DNA sequence.

How can scientists identify specific bacteria when they are amplifying and studying the same region of DNA in each species?

Scientists already know the DNA sequencing for most bacteria. So, to identify a certain bacteria they will look at the same sections of DNA to determine the sequence. The sequence of nucleotides will then be examined by the scientists to see if they match with the sequences of other bacteria.


What is recombinant sequence?

A recombinant sequence of DNA is a sequence of DNA that comes from more than one source. Examples of recombinant DNA are plasmids that are put into bacteria. The plasmid comes from the bacteria (or a bacteria at least) but a target gene has been added (say the lac operon gene that allows bacteria to thrive on lactose), this plasmid is now a recombinant DNA sequence.


What is the unique sequence of DNA base pairs that can be used to identify a person at the molecular level?

The unique sequence of DNA base pairs that can be used to identify a person at the molecular level is called a DNA fingerprint.


What has been used to identify the DNA sequence of every human gene?

The Human Genome Project.


Which of the following check DNA for errors?

The correct answer is "Proofreading enzymes." Proofreading enzymes help to identify and correct errors in DNA replication, ensuring accuracy in the DNA sequence.


Is the goal of DNA fingerprinting to identify the DNA sequence of every gene?

false it is to show that no one person can have the same fingerprint as another except twins


What component is necessary to identify plant that integrate a transgene?

Molecular techniques such as PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and DNA sequencing are necessary to identify plants that have integrated a transgene. These techniques allow researchers to specifically amplify and analyze the DNA sequence of the transgene in the plant's genome.


How are genes identified in a DNA sequence?

Genes are identified in a DNA sequence through a process called gene prediction, which involves analyzing the sequence for specific patterns and signals that indicate the presence of a gene, such as start and stop codons, promoter regions, and coding sequences. Various computational algorithms and tools are used to help identify and annotate genes in a DNA sequence.


How do radioisotopes identify DNA?

Radioisotopes are often used to label DNA molecules for detection purposes. This is achieved by incorporating radioactively labeled nucleotides during DNA replication or using radiolabeled probes that bind specifically to the DNA sequence of interest. By detecting the emitted radiation from the radioisotope, researchers can locate and identify the DNA molecules.


How can the amino acid codon wheel be used to determine the specific amino acid sequence in a given DNA sequence?

The amino acid codon wheel can be used to determine the specific amino acid sequence in a given DNA sequence by matching the DNA codons with their corresponding amino acids on the wheel. Each set of three DNA nucleotides (codon) codes for a specific amino acid, and by using the codon wheel, one can easily identify the amino acid sequence encoded by the DNA.


How can you identify a man from his DNA?

There are billions of base pairs in your chromosomes. So that is practically impossible to have a same photocopy of the DNA. So it is always possible to identify the individual from his DNA pattern. There is but one loophole in this statement. That is, you have same DNA pattern in identical twins and it is very difficult to identify them separately from their DNA pattern.


Even though the bacteria don't have any DNA but they can do replication process how can it possible?

Bacteria do have DNA. Bacteria are prokaryotic cells, meaning they are fully functional cells (have DNA, RNA, ribosomes, cytoplasm). They just do not have a nucleus to house their like eukaryotic cells.
