a gene is copied and extracted from an organism

22
Q

DNA fingerprinting

A

examining a person’s unique sequence of dna base pairs

23
Q

Recombiant/transgenic dna

A

can be made by combining dna from 2 different organisms

24
Farming with pH
altering a crop to get a new variation
25
Plasmid
in dna circle shape extrachromosomal replicate on their own
26
Pathogenic bacteria
bacteria that can cause disease
27
How can bacteria become resistant to treatment
lateral ... mutations antibodies
28
Virus structure
dna or rna 1 or 2 stranded capsid (protein code surrounding) can be disease causing vary in their genetic information
29
4 things required for mitotic division
signal replicate its dna segregate cytokinesis
30
Test cross
crossing a homozygous recessive to figure out the other organism's genotype
