100
What is the total dna present in the nucleus of each cell?
genome
100
What are some uses of cloning?
Transplant, replicate dead animals, bring extinct animals back to life
100
What are ways that biotechnology can solve crimes?
Blood and fingerprints left behind, containing DNA
100
What is the number of steps involved?
3
100
What are stem cells?
differentiated cells/ specialized cells
200
what are restriction enzymes?
Proteins that recognize and bind to specific dna sequences and cut the dna with that sequence
200
What are health problems from cloning?
Arthritis, trouble breathing, die young, grow too large
200
What are the four blood types?
Type O, type A, type B, type AB
200
How many times does the heating and cooling process repeat?
20-40 times
200
What is the outer layer of the cell called?
ectodome
300
What is the process where electric currents are used to separate dan segments of different sizes
Gel electrophoresis
300
What are the differences between clones and parents?
physically different (height, eye colour?
300
What are examples of biotechnology?
Drugs and Medicine
300
What is the first step?
Mix the dna fragment to be copied
300
What is the inner layer of a cell called?
endodome
400
What is the area you cut the DNA strand
in between the two T's
400
What is the difference between chickens born with black patches and ones without?
black chicken has more meat and is the the great bird
400
What are plasmids?
a small DNA molecule that is physically separate from, and can replicate independently of, chromosomal DNA within a cell
400
What is the second step?
heat separates strands of the fragment then cooling causes the primers to bind to the strands
400
What are the two types of stem cells?
somatic and embryonic
500
What is genetic engineering?
technology that involves manipulating the dan of one organism in order to insert extra dna
500
What is a real life example of cloning
Dolly the sheep
500
What are dna ligase's
A specific type of enzyme
500
What is the final step?
Polymerase adds nucleotides in proper sequence; similar to replication
500
What are pluripotent stem cells?
they have the ability to differentiate any cell in the body and are generated directly from adult cells
