Not all restriction enzymes necessarily cleave DNA at rotationally symmetric sites. For example, the recognition site of the res

triction enzyme Bst XI is 5' CCANNNNN^NTGG, where the symbol ^ represents the cleavage site and N means any nucleotide. Make the simplifying assumptions that equal amouts of all four nucleotides exist in the human genome, and that its base sequence is random. How frequently would you expect to find Bst XI recognition sites in the human genome

Answer:

The correct answer is - Bst XI will cleave the DNA on average once in 4096 base pairs: one out 4096 DNA fragments will have compatible ends

Explanation:

In the question the sequence of the Bst XI is given:

5' CCANNNNN'NTGG 3' , here ' sign is the site of restriction

It is also given that N = any nucleotide and equal amounts of nucleotide present in the human genome.

Probability of anyone nucleotide = 1/4 (G = A = T = C = 1/4 )

Nucleotide is equal so we can neglect it as its probability is 1.

Number of bases = 6

so, the probability of occurrence of the site with 6 different bases

= (1/4)^6

= 1/4096

Thus, It means the enzyme Bst XI will cut DNA at once in every 4096 bases.

mr Goodwill [35]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

(a)DNA (b)tRNA (c)rRNA (d)mRNA

Answer:

Option-mRNA

Explanation:

The mRNA is synthesized from the DNA and which is also a type of nucleic acid. When the nucleic acid is extracted from the yeasts and then mixed with the resin beads to which the polynucleotide with thymine base oar is attached.

The mRNA will bind to the resin bead as the mRNA after synthesis undergoes modification and attaches poly A tail to the end of the mRNA at 3' end.

This poly-A tail has adenine which easily binds to the thymine and thus mRNA easily attaches to the resin bead.

Thus, mRNA is correct.

The Yellowstone River ecosystem can support 2,300 bald eagles. This is an example of<u> temperate- zone ecosystems</u>

Explanation:

Yellowstone National Park is a natural  paradise with over 70 species of birds,which  include  trumpeter swans, sandhill cranes, loons, peregrine falcons, osprey and bald eagles

The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, with Yellowstone at its core, is one of the largest nearly intact temperate- zone ecosystems on Earth. It has an area of 12–22 million acres; 18,750– 34,375 square miles

<u>Temperate ecosystems are the ecosystem that are characterized by the  seasonality in temperature, with cooler winters and warmer summers, and also  show various  seasonality in precipitation patterns, resulting from seasonal changes in the orientation of Earth's axis relative to the sun.</u>

<u></u>

The Yellowstone River ecosystem can support 2,300 bald eagles. This is an example of<u> temperate- zone ecosystems</u>

Drag each tile to the correct box.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:it is a similar thing to natural selection, the ones less effected by it survive and adapt over time to survive the vaccine. However, google defines it this way, "The adaptive immune system, also known as the acquired immune system or, more rarely, as the specific immune system, is a subsystem of the overall immune system that is composed of highly specialized, systemic cells and processes that eliminate pathogens or prevent their growth"
