Yes. Every cell in your body contains the exact same genetic information, regardless of where that cell is found.
BT corn means that the corn has been genetically modified with DNA from another organism.
What must researchers know before they begin the process of gentic engineering?
you need to know which restriction enzyme to use. also, who is the doner and the plasmid.
Is having five fingers or toes a recessive genetic trait?
Yes, because Polydactyly is a dominant allele.

Can someone answer this one I’m so stuck! ;(
Genetic disease evident between 30-50?
One such illness is Huntington's Disease- a disease of the central nervous system, that usually begins to shows symptoms between ages 30-50.
What is genetic engineering in The Giver?
they basically made it to where almost everyone has the same genes...

Benefits of medical treatments that control gene expression?
I would guess that if a gene is not functioning normally then controlling the expression of that gene would be beneficial.
It means mRNA protein. They are mainly responsible for the transport of mRNA out of the nuclear pores after transcription. EJC and TAP are some mRNPs. I hope this helps.
What might the Mutation of a genetic material cause?
Lots of things, the most common of which is cancer.
Would a disease caused by exposure to chemicals be considered a genetic trait?
A genetic trait is passed on through the genes. Which means that disease from exposure to chemicals is not inherited.
What are two genetic disorders?

How is probability related to genetics?
Probability and genetics go hand in hand. Mendel in his charts showed the probability of dominant and recessive genes being passed on to offspring. The desired trait could be cultivated knowing the probability of inheritance.
Can a genetic counselor use a karyotype to identify a carrier of cystic fibrosis?
saddly and tragically :( no im terribly sorry
What is uncoiled genetic material?
Uncoiled strands of DNA are called chromosomes. It is a single piece of DNA that contains a large number of nucleotide sequences.
Is there a future with a person with narcissism disorder?
There seldom is any future with a narcissist because the know all, are smarter than everyone else, can be brash, rude and unfriendly to certain people. It's a good idea to go on www.google.com and type in: What is a Narcissist? This way you will not have labeled the person unfairly and unless a psychiatrist/psychologist has deemed this person a narcissist then they may just be picky or have other character flaws. Whatever the flaws if you feel this person is far too complicated, doesn't treat you or others well, is always argumentative, then keep going! Life is too short. Narcissistic people seldom go for counseling because they believe they are smart, right about everything and everyone else is ignorant and 'doesn't understand them.'
The human race can be cloned. Theoretically. The public is unaware as to whether various governments around the world have already started cloning humans. There is a large debate in progress about the morality of such an action. Who are we to recreate human life? It also brings religion into the topic as well. Does a clone have a soul? Can a clone think? How would it react to being a clone? There are too many questions to be answered before cloning a human can be attempted. If it hasn't been already. Try reading House of the Scorpion, a fictional novel that deals with the morality of cloning and the growth of a clone to adulthood.

Till the pre-erythrocyte stage you have the nucleus in red blood cells. It is shed to get the mature red blood cell.
