The given blanks can be filled with the ability to take up foreign DNA and express proteins faster.  

The direct manipulation of the genes of an organism with the application of biotechnology is known as genetic engineering. It is an array of technologies that are utilized to modify the genetic make-up of an organism, involving the transfer of genes across and within the boundaries of the species to generate novel or bettered organisms.  

In genetic engineering, bacteria play a key role, as it is an essential tool for natural scientists. The genes and other genetic information from a broad array of species can be administered into bacteria for modification and storage, thus producing genetically modified bacteria in the procedure.  

The bacteria possess the tendency to take up foreign DNA and expresses the desired proteins at a faster rate.

Which of the following are functions of lipids? Choose three correct answers. A. forming the exoskeletons of insects B. forming
irina [24]

The three correct answers are;

B. forming waxy leaf coverings

D. storing energy in fat cells

E. forming cell membranes

Lipids are a large group of biological molecules that include phospholipids, fats, oils, waxes and some steroids. Almost all lipids are hydrophobic (i.e. insoluble in water). Lipids play many important different functions in a cell. Lipids are vital component of all cellular membranes. They store energy in the form of fats in the body. Waxy coverings on some leaves are composed of lipids. Lipids are also essential for heat insulation, cellular communication and protection.

seraphim [82]

Answer:  herbivore, eukaryote, primary consumer

Explanation:

The red squirrel can be described by the following features.

1. Herbivore: A herbivore is an animal which is dependent upon the plant and their products for it's food requirement. Here, the red squirrel is the herbivore because it is dependent upon the spruce tree seeds for their food requirement.

2. Eukaryote: A eukaryotic organism is the one which has well define nucleus and encloses the genetic material in the nucleus. The red squirrel is a complex eukaryotic organism.

3. Primary consumer: In a food chain a primary consumer is an organism which is dependent upon plants and their food products for energy and food needs. The red squirrel is the primary consumer this is because of the fact that it consumes on the seeds of the spruce trees.

(c) find the longest interval during which no tree-cutting samples occurred. what is the first year that no tree-cutting samples
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Longest interval during which no tree-cutting sample occurred: 9 years (1203 AD - 1212 AD)

First year in that interval: 1203 AD

Explanation:

Lets complete the question first.

Q) A study uses tree rings to determine the year in which a tree was cut. The data is shown in the leaf and stem diagram in the ATTACHMENT.

The three digits number in the left column represents centuries and decades AD. The numbers on the right represents the years.

For example, consider the first input in the diagram

119 | 5   6

which means it represents 2 samples.

1195 AD, 1196 AD.

The longest interval with no tree-cutting samples is found from 1203 AD to 1212 AD.
