DNA&RNA
How many strands of RNA are there?
one
What relationship benefits themselves but harms/hurts others?
Parasitism
What is genetic engineering?
The modification of the characteristics of an organism by manipulating its genetic material.
What is the definition of succession?
Succession is the change in either species composition, structure, or architecture of vegetation through time.
what is biology?
the study of living organisms
What is the difference between DNA and RNA?
1) RNA contains sugar ribose, while DNA contains sugar deoxyribose.
What relationship between two organisms in which one benefits and other is neither benefited or harmed?
commensalism
true or false: insulin genetically engineered
True
What is an example of succession?
Primary Succession
Secondary Succession
Pioneer and Niche Species
Climax Communities
what is a community?
a group of species
RNA: What is the difference between mRNA and tRNA?
mRNA makes a template of the code for the protein from DNA/and the messenger. tRNA is a carrier molecule that transfers amino acids to the ribosome
what does niche mean?
Organism's role in an ecosystem
does genetic engineering help the economy? How?
Yes, because Genetic engineering is a sound economic investment that will bring large profit.
What is the first species in succession called?
pioneer species. The first organisms to appear in areas of primary succession are often mosses or lichens.
what is mutation?
Mutation is a change in a gene or chromosome, and can also be inherited. Individuals in a population are usually similar to each other, but not identical.
What is the process of DNA to RNA?
RNA is synthesized from DNA by enzyme RNA polymerase during transcription. RNA is then translated into into proteins by ribosomes.
what is an example of mutualism?
ex: remora fish and sharks
why is genetic engineering important?
Genetic engineering is immensely important because of the potential benefits it contains and the advances it allows for in the future. The ultimate goal of genetic engineering is to prevent, treat, and cure genetic diseases and disorders.
What are the different types of succession?
ecological succession, the process by which the structure of a biological community evolves over time. Two different types of succession, primary and secondary, have been distinguished.
What chromosome mutation led to down syndrome?
Chromosome 21
What are the four pairs of DNA bases that form in the double helix?
A-T
T-A
C-G
G-C
What relationship do two organisms benefit from each other?
mutualism
What are the primary objectives of genetic engineering?
solation of a selected gene or a part of a gene for varied functions equivalent to gene medical care of Genetic Engineering Production of particular RNA and macromolecule molecules of Genetic Engineering
what is primary succession?
The establishment and development of an ecosystem in an area that was previously uninhabited
What does insulin help with?
it helps decrease the amount of glucose in your body.
