synthesizing the DNA‚ and then inserting this construct into the host organism. Genes may be removed‚ or "knocked out"‚ using a nuclease. Gene targeting is a different technique that uses homologous recombination to change an endogenous gene‚ and can be used to delete a gene‚ remove exons‚ add a gene‚ or introduce point mutations. An organism that is generated through genetic engineering is considered to be a genetically modified organism (GMO). The first GMOs were bacteria in 1973; GM mice were generated

BIO Microscopy‚ Mitosis‚ and Motility Lab Discussion Questions In the Microscopy‚ Mitosis‚ and Motility lab‚ the class used the Compound Microscope. The Compound Microscope helped examine the prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells‚ observe the different stages of mitosis‚ and compare modes of motility used by protists. The light compound microscope works with the aid of lenses such as the eyepiece. These lenses help keep the focus of the light on the eye. The fine and course adjustments also assist with

The objective of this report was to first isolate a single colony of an unknown culture on a LB agar plate. From here‚ a slant was made and used for multiple types of testing in order to determine the identity of the unknown organism. The tests performed to identify the unknown organism included Gram Staining‚ Fluid thioglycollate/aero-tolerance test

Carbon dioxide is both a vital requirement for producers – the first organisms in any food chain‚ and at times a dangerous waste product. Where plants use carbon dioxide during the Calvin cycle of photosynthesis‚ at night they also produce small quantities due to respiration. Fundamentally‚ carbon dioxide reacts with ribulose bisphosphate to produce glycerate 3-phosphate in the light independent reaction. In turn glycerate3-phosphate is reduced to triose phosphate using reduced NADP
