22.a cross is made between two plant. The plants produce 100 offsprings.75 of which have curly leaves, and 25 of which have flat leaves. The RATIO of curly leaves to flats leaves is
a.75 curly leave:25flat leaves
b.25 curly leaves : 75 flat leaves
c.15 in a 100 or 1in 4
d.75 in 100 or 3 in 4

23.another cross is made between the two plants from question 22. based of the information in the last questrtion, the probabitlythatany given offsprings produced by this cross will have curly leaves is

d.75 in 100 or 3 in 4

24.the plants crossed in question 22 and 23 are most likely
a.homozygous dominant
b.homozygous recessive
c.heterozygous

Hopefully you have a major in biotech, genetics, and/or microbiology, or if you have a job in any of those fields, or your a scientist in that field, or a professor, I was wondering if it would be possible to change the bacteria to infect humans instead of plants and by doing so, we can put specific genes in the bacteria such as insulin gene for diabetics, stronger immune system, etc. In other words could we use gm agrobacterium as gene therapy vectors? Would this be possible?

For those of you asking WTF is an agrobacterium, its a tumor inducing, Ti, bacteria that infects dead plant cells which in turn infect other adjacent plant cells by incorporating its own DNA into the DNA of the plant cell. Scientists use these bacterias by recombining its DNA, putting in a gene into the bacteria, a gene useful in a plant, and then allowing the bacteria to incorporate its DNA with nearby plant cells in order to grow better plants.

Plz answer, I’m a high school senior who plans on majoring in biotech, genetics, and microbiology and have nothing to brag about on my resume. So I need something to impress this university I want to get in to which is to create gm agrobacterium that infects the human genome as a vector for gene therapy.

I am interested in purchasing a live plant online in the US and shipped to Canada, where I live, but I don’t know what permits or customs-related issues would be faced. I have heard something about a phytoinspection on the supplier or something like that, but I don’t think I can have that done.

What do I need to do, in order to have a plant shipped from the US arrive at my door?
Thanks.

The plant is 100% legal and all of that, don’t get any ideas, but it is very rare and almost never goes to seed, so the only methods of propagation are clippings/cloning or live plants.

. How does gene therapy treat genetic disorders?
a.recombinant DNA is used to create commercial products to treat the disease
b.a normal gene is inserted into a cell and becomes part of the genome
c. proteins are inserted into the cell to block the transcription of DNA
d. mutant cells are exposed to radiation to destroy DNA

2.Which of these is NOT a safety concern about genetically modified plants?
a. Some people may have allergies to the new protein within the plant
b.The plant may contain a new protein that is a potential toxin
c. The new protein in the plant is digested and broken down by the digestive system
d.The plant with the modified gene may cross pollinate with other plants

3.Mutant zygotic genes are lethal, and for the sake of this question – recessive. In a cross between 2 fruit flies, one heterozygous for the mutation and the other is homozygous dominant – what percent of the embryos they create would you expect to die?
a. 100%
b. 50%
c. 25%
d. 0%

I have 3 Rose of Sharons and in this past week the leaves of two of the plants adjacent to each other have turned a bright yellow all over the plant. The other one on the other side remains green and pretty. I am not overwatering them because for the most part they get water once a week if they are lucky. Is this a disease, fungus, insects? I don’t want to lose them. I see no insects or chew damage.

jellyfish gene for green fluorescent protein into pigs, bacteria, plants and mice. The result was bioluminescent organisms! These experiments demonstrate that:

A) jellyfish genes may be transferred into other aquatic ectotherms, but not mammals
B) genes have no difficulty crossing the species barrier
C) animal genes will not function if transferred into animals
D) genes can only be transferred to other organisms within the same species
