Plants

The name of the small DNA fragment used to determine if the complementary sequence is present in a DNA sample?-----ans: probe

Ans: plasmid

Ans: An organism with an artificially altered genome.

Ans: plasmid

Which of the following processes of testing is used for the presence of disease-causing genes?

Genetic testing (answer).

What is produced on a large scale by cultivating and manipulating fungal cells?
Ans: antibiotic

Ans: Genomics

Ans: mitochondrial dna

Note: DNA directs information for cellular functions, and is transcribed into RNA which is translated into proteins. Gene expression is regulated at both transcription and translation levels.
