  • If a person has damaged the epidermal layer of skin then the damaged layer must be cleaned as soon as possible to prevent the epidermal skin from further infection.
  • Antibiotic cream must be applied on the wound to continue the process of wound healing as infection can slow down the process of healing.
  • The cut area must be covered with bandage to prevent from action of harmful micoorganisms.

How does light intensity affect oxygen production?
ZanzabumX [31]
Greater light intensity would mean a faster rate of photosynthesis in plants. photosynthesis takes in carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen. therefore, a greater light intensity would mean faster oxygen production

The backbone of DNA and RNA is composed of_________ . DNA is double stranded due to interactions between adenine, cytosine, guan
o-na [289]

A sugar-phosphate backbone (alternating grey-dark grey) joins together nucleotides in a DNA sequence. The sugar-phosphate backbone forms the structural framework of nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA. This backbone is composed of alternating sugar and phosphate groups, and defines directionality of the molecule.The two strands run in opposite directions, one going in a 3' to 5' direction and the other going in a 5' to 3' direction. The nitrogenous bases are positioned inside the helix structure like "rungs on a ladder," due to the hydrophobic effect, and stabilized by hydrogen bonding. Uracil is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of RNA that are represented by the letters A, G, C and U. The others are adenine, cytosine, and guanine. In RNA, uracil binds to adenine via two hydrogen bonds. In DNA, the uracil nucleobase is replaced by thymine. Uracil is a demethylated form of thymine.

gove one example of how advances in science and technology have allowed the human population to increase rapidly
natima [27]
One example: The improvement in science and technology over the years has decreased the infant mortality rate. Since more babies live, we have a higher population. 

Also, with increases in science and technology, there are many diseases that were once considered fatal that are now easily treated. This has also led to a higher population.

Enhancerless GFP reporter constructs used in research conducted in mice contain a generic mouse gene promoter (TATA box) followe
balandron [24]

Answer:

the reporter gene can randomly insert near to an enhancer sequence which can induce its expression

Explanation

Enhancers are genetic sequences capable of activating gene expression by binding to specific proteins (e.g., transcription factors). Enhancers can regulate the expression of nearby genes located thousands of nucleotides away, i.e., over several kilobases away. In the human genome, it is well known that enhancers are scattered across the 98% of the genome. In this case, it is expected that the reporter GFP gene construct is randomly inserted near an enhancer sequence (a 10% chance of insertion), thereby being regulated by that enhancer.
