What process puts new gene segments into the genes of a corn plant to produce a new variety of corn that is resistant to disease?
O adapting
O cloning
O genetic engineering
O selective breeding
Answer:
selective breeding............
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.

You are studying ion channels and have set up model lipid vesicles containing the three following transporters:
1. a Na+ /H+ antiporter driven by the Na+ concentration gradient.
2. The common 3Na+ /2K+ pump.
3. K+ leak channels. The experiments are designed such that all three transporters are oriented in the model lipid bilayers in the same direction they would be in the plasma membrane of a cell and that concentration gradients in vitro mimic the concentration gradients experienced by cells (e.g., the extracellular Na+ concentration is similar to the concentration outside of the vesicle whereas the concentration in the lumen of the model vesicles is similar to intracellular Na+ levels).
Required:
a. Draw the arrangement and ion flow of the three types of transporters in the model membranes.
b. What do you predict will happen to the pH of the vesicle lumen if you treat the model membranes with the drug oubain that impairs function of the 3Na+/2K+ pump? Briefly explain your answer in terms of what happens with each transporter.
Answer and Explanation:
a) you will find the arrangement and ion flow of the three types of transporters in the model membranes in the attached files.
K+ leak channels are channel proteins that allow K⁺ to leave the cell in favor of its concentration gradient. It keeps a stable equilibrium by taking out K⁺ that the 3Na+ /2K+ pump brings into the cell. Any alteration in the pump leads to an alteration in the leak channel functioning. Na+ /H+ antiporter is an integral membrane protein, and a secondary transporter is responsible for the interchange of H+ and Na+ through the membrane with no use of energy. It regulates pH within the cell. It responds to the Na+ and H+ concentration gradient, determined by the 3Na+ /2K+ pump. An alteration in the pump functioning produces a change in the Na gradient and consequently affects the antiporter interchange action. 3Na+ /2K+ pump is an integral protein that transports K+ and Na+ against the electrochemical gradient. A significant amount of energy is used to make the pump function. It brings K+ into the cell and takes Na+ out of it. It keeps the membrane potential and the electrochemical gradient constant. The pump function is associated with the leak channels and the antiporters function.Under normal conditions, the cell interior has a lower pH than the exterior. The K+ concentration is higher in the interior, while the Na+ concentration is higher in the cell exterior. The interior of the cell is always more electronegative than the cell exterior.
b)
The drug ouabain inhibits the pump. It impedes the Na+ exit and the K+ entrance. It occurs a sharp increase in the Na+ intracellular concentration, which influences the Na+ /H+ antiporter that changes the ions´ direction, taking out Na+ and bringing in H+ to compensate the intracellular Na+ excess. There is also a decrease in the leak channel function, which does not allow K+ to leave the cell.
Whenever the pump is inhibited, there is an increase in the intracellular pH, because Na+ concentration increases in the interior.

Early genetic manipulation of petunias included an attempt to engineer dark purple petals. To this end, extra copies of the gene that causes purple pigment was engineered to be produced in the petunia. However, to the surprise of many, the plants carrying the extra copies of the purple gene were completely white or only had patches of color. Molecular analysis revealed that the purple gene was reduced 50-fold in the engineered plants compared to wild type. Provide a possible explanation how this occurred. Also, provide a possible experiment that may overcome this setback
Answer:
The altered pigmentation in transgenic petunia plants is caused by the RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism
Explanation:
The RNA interference mechanism is a naturally occurring mechanism by which single-stranded RNA molecules can bind to complementary mRNAs in order to inhibit gene expression, blocking translation and leading to mRNA degradation. The example above described is a classical genetic experiment (Napoli et al. 1990 ) that showed the existence of the RNAi pathway by the overexpression of a chimeric chalcone synthase (CHS) gene in pigmented petunia flowers, which blocked anthocyanin biosynthesis. In this experiment, irregularly bicolored/white flowers in transgenic petunias containing exogenous pigmentation genes were developed. The co‑suppression of gene expression was produced by the high-copy-number transcription of the CHS transgene, showing the existence of an undescribed RNAi silencing mechanism. Somatic reversion of the altered phenotype can be achieved by restoring the normal mRNA levels for these pigmentation genes, e.g., by a progeny testing in order to eliminate transgenic CHS expression.

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
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.

Explanation:
What the consequences would be if the entire water surface was covered with water lilies
Answer: There can be a ton of damage done if water lilies overgrow.
Explanation:
Water lilies protect the organisms under the body of water and provide shade to the plants and organisms underneath. These are very important for organisms, as they also provide a place to rest. But if the entire water surface were to be covered with water lilies, this would be a major problem, because sunlight would have no way of reaching below the surface, and this would decrease oxygen levels for plants and organisms. Without air and sunlight, plants will start to die and organisms of the body of water will also start to die because of no air to breathe. Also, overgrowth of water lilies causes water stagnation and leads to excessive algae blooms. The stagnant water attracts insects like mosquitoes, cockroaches, termites, and more pests which can harm plants and organisms.

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.
Answer:
1)
frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.74 frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.262)
frequencies of light-colored mice ≅ 0.13 frequencies of dark-colored mice ≅ 0.873)
p² ≅ 0.02q² ≅ 0.742pq ≅ 0.244)
q² = 0.13 p² = 0.4 2pq = 0.465) 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.
