How might an individual's own cells lead to false verdicts of guilt.

Biology
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Through a circumstance known as "secondary transfer DNA", or "Touch DNA".

Explanation:

Most times when a crime is committed, DNA samples are obtained from surfaces in the scene where the crime was committed. There is a very huge possibility of picking up the DNA of someone who was never at the scene of the crime and this is a result of a condition known as Touch DNA.

Because we touch several objects which can be moved to different locations and touch people who are also always mobile, our DNA cells can find their ways to a crime scene where we had never physically been to. This can lead to false verdicts of guilt.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct answers are: Ribosome, Mitochondria, Chloroplast (in case of a plant cell).

Explanation:

  • The Endo-membrane system in the cell represents the membranes of the Nucleus, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Plasma Membrane, Vacuole and Lysosome.
  • The Nuclear Envelope is made up of a phospholipid bilayer which remains in continuation with the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) membrane.
  • Therefore, fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein localised in the outer nuclear envelope can move into the ER membrane by lateral movement or through vesicles that bud off from the membrane of the nuclear envelope and fuse with that of the ER membrane.
  • Vesicles bud off from the membrane of the ER and fuse with the Golgi apparatus. Therefore, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein can move into the membrane of the Golgi apparatus.
  • Vesicles bud off from the Golgi apparatus and fuse with the Plasma membrane, Lysosome membrane, and Vacuole membrane. Hence, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein can be found in all these organelles.
  • Ribosome lacks a membrane and hence, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein will be absent over here.
  • Both Mitochondria and Chloroplast, are self-replicating and dividing organelles. Their proteins (membrane or matrix) are encoded mostly by their own genome. Also, vesicles that bud from from nucleus or ER or Golgi apparatus do not fuse into their membrane. Hence, the fluorescent tagged protein would not be able to reach their membrane.

A lab technician provides you with a bacterial pellet labeled "G3". When you observe the pellet under UV light, there is little
umka21 [38]

Answer: The two possible explanation for the outcome are as follows:

Explanation:

1. The bacterial DNA in the pellet was not completely isolated properly, therefore, no fluorescence was observed in the pellet under the exposure of UV radiation.

2. After 3 hours of induction with the IPTG and labeling with the G3. The IPGT might not be able to bound to the bacterial DNA that could show response of fluorescence in the ultraviolet light.

What symbiotic relationship is best represented in this picture? A) amensalism B) commensalism C) mutualism D) parasitism
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: Option A) amensalism

Explanation:

Amensalism is a biological relationship between two organisms whereby one is harmed or destroyed while the other neither benefits nor get harmed.

In this case, the erect tree lap looks fresh i.e unharmed; while the coiled plant is dried and destroyed. Thus, the relationship best represents amensalism
