Genetic engineering allows the modification in the DNA of an organism. To obtain a disease free plant, genetic engineering is carried out. Thus, option c is the correct answer.

What is genetic engineering?

Genetic engineering is a tool used in biotechnology to bring modifications or alterations in the genetic material - DNA of an organism. It modifies the DNA through addition of a gene segment or deletion of a gene.

In genetic engineering process, a specific gene of interest or the desired genetic sequence is selected. It then inserted into a cloning vector to allow its replication in the host gene. The so called 'recombinant' then formed is inserted into the host through various insertion techniques.

Genetic engineering thus allows the selection of a disease free plant, pest resistance or temperature resistant plant. A new variety of the plant can be obtained through genetic engineering.

The genome of an organism can thus be edited where the unhealthy genes can be eliminated through genetic engineering.

bedbugs are small insects that live in and around the bedding of humans and feed on humans at night. Their bites cause redness, itching, swelling at the site of the injury. They can be small and difficult to see during the day when the linens are cleaned. In order to remove bedbugs, an insecticidal agent is often used. In this case, pyrethroid was chemically added to a population of bedbugs. The number of bedbugs in the infestation was significantly reduced. However, over time, the bedbug population rebounded and further application of the pyrethroid was not successful. Evaluate which statements describe occured with the bedbugs and select all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

The bedbugs began to die, but then they mutated to become immune to the chemical being used on them, so then they were able to regain their population. Most of the time, in order to get rid of bedbugs, people just burn their mattress' because bedbugs mutate and become immune fast becase their life cycle is so short.

You are studying the bacteria in the water of a nearby pond. From a 100 mL sample, you use a 0.5 mL subsample to inoculate a plastic dish filled with a semi solid nutrient medium that fosters growth of coliform bacteria. After an appropriate incubation period, you count 100 bacterial colonies growing on the surface of the medium. What conclusion can you make about the coliform bacteria in the pond water

Answers

Answer:

There are 20,000 colony forming units of coliform per 100 mL of the pond water.

Explanation:

0.5  mL of the 100 mL sample was inoculated.

There were 100 colonies in the 0.5 mL of the sample.

Hence, the number of colonies that would be in the 100 mL can be calculated as:

      100 colonies = 0.5 mL

        x = 100 mL

x = 100 x 100/0.5

       = 20,000 colonies

Hence, the conclusion that can be made is that there were 20,000 CFU (colony forming units) of coliform bacteria in a 100 mL sample of the pond water.

Dr. Nachman and his colleagues collected rock pocket mice across 35 kilometers of the Arizona Sonoran Desert, which included both dark, rocky lava outcrops and light, rocky, granite areas. They recorded substrate color, and coat-color frequencies for each location. Each site was separated from any of the others by at least eight kilometers. The researchers trapped a total of 275 mice. Their data are summarized below (numbers have been slightly modified for the purposes of this worksheet).
Field Data Summary
Collecting Site Substrate Color Number of Mice Phenotype Light Dark
1 Dark 22 3 19
2 Light 80 74 6
3 Light 22 19 3
4 Dark 28 3 25
5 Light 58 25 33
6 Dark 65 9 56
1. Calculate the overall frequencies of light-colored mice and dark-colored mice caught on light-colored substrates. [to 3 decimal places]
2. Calculate the overall frequencies of light-colored mice and dark-colored mice caught on dark-colored substrates. (to 3 decimal places)
3. Using the Hardy-Weinberg equation and data from the table above, determine the frequency of the three genotypes on the light, rocky, granite substrate. For genotype frequencies use three decimal places and for calculations using the allele frequencies, you must round the allele frequencies to two decimal places.
4. Using the Hardy-Weinberg equation and data from the table above, determine the frequency of the three genotypes on the dark, rocky lava substrate. (to 3 decimals). For genotype frequencies use three decimal places and for calculations using the allele frequencies, you must round the allele frequencies to two decimal places.
5. Which fur color seems to have the greatest overall selective advantage? Use data collected from both dark-colored and light- colored substrates to support your answer.
6.What environmental change gave a selective advantage for one coat color over another?
7. In a separate study, 76 rock pocket mice were collected from four different, widely separated areas of dark lava rock. One collecting site was in Arizona. The other three were in New Mexico. Dr. Nachman and colleagues observed no significant differences in the color of the rocks in the four locations sampled. However, the dark-colored mice from the three New Mexico locations were slightly darker than the dark-colored mice from the Arizona population. The entire Mc1r gene was sequenced in all 76 of the mice collected. The mutations responsible for the dark fur color in the Arizona mice were absent from the three different populations of New Mexico mice. No Mc1r mutations were associated with dark fur color in the New Mexico populations. These findings suggest that adaptive dark coloration has occurred at least twice in the rock pocket mouse and that these similar phenotypic changes have different genetic bases. How does this study support the concept that natural selection is not random?
8. To determine if the rock pocket mouse population is evolving, explain why it is necessary to collect fur color frequency data over a period of many years.

Answers

Answer:

1)

frequencies of light-colored mice  ≅ 0.74 frequencies of dark-colored mice  ≅ 0.26

2)

frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.13 frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.87

3)

p² ≅ 0.02q² ≅ 0.742pq ≅ 0.24

4)

q² = 0.13 p² = 0.4 2pq = 0.46

5) The dark-colored fur seems to have the greatest overall selective advantage

6) Dark lava changed the color of the substrate, from light to dark.

7) Because to produce dark color, animals from the different regions suffered different mutations that drove them to have almost the same dark fur color.

8) To see if the mice population is evolving. If it is, there will be a change in the allelic and genotypic frequencies over the years. If it is not evolving, the frequencies will keep equal through the years.

What is mitosis?

Mitosis has been defined as the process by which the cell divided it has been chromosome and then to separate them and the identical nuclei that has been produced for the preparation of the division of the cell. During the process of the mitosis as a single cell divided into the identical daughter cell.

There are four stage of the mitosis and these are mentioned below:

1- Prophase

The first stage of the mitosis in which the size of the chromosome has became the short and thicken in the shape.

2- Metaphase

This is known as the second stage of the mitosis in which the chromosome lies in the mid of the cell.

3- Anaphase

During this stage of the mitosis has been chromatides will break and they have to move to the opposite poles.

4- Telophase

Telophase has been known as the last stage of the mitosis in which two nuclei formed.

Therefore, Devise as way to remember each stage of mitosis and the correct way to learn is PMAT and the full form of the PMAT is P- prophase - chromosomes appear - P, M- metaphase - chromosomes in Middle - M, A- anaphase - chromatids moved Away - A, and T- telophase - Two new cells -T.

Oldfield mice from the mainland live in areas with dark soils. These mice mostly have dark fur. Populations of the same species that live on the white beaches of Florida and Alabama have light fur. Describe the evidence you would need to collect to support the claim that the differences in color in these populations are due to natural selection.

Answers

Answer:

It is a true example of natural selection.

Explanation:

The dark colour mice lives in the dark soil of southeastern United States in large number as compared to other colour mice because this colour helps them to hide themselves from their predators in that dark soil while on the other hand, on light beaches of Florida light colour mice lives because this light colour also helps these mice in hiding from their enemy animals which is a true example of natural selection because dark colour mice can't survive in light colour beaches dude easily seen by their enemies and reduces its population by eating them.
