cloning vectors in gene cloning. In gene cloning‚ a fragment of DNA‚ containing the gene to be cloned is inserted into a circular molecule called the “vector” to produce recombinant DNA molecule. Plasmids are one of the most commonly used “vectors” for this purpose. They transport the gene into a host cell‚ such as a bacterium‚ which is said to be transformed with the recombinant molecule. Here‚ these plasmid vectors multiply‚ producing numerous identical copies of itself and the gene that it carries

Specific gravity What is specific gravity? Archimedes discovered that the weight of body in air minus its weight in water is equivalent to the weight of the water displaced by the body. Specific gravity is defined as "The weight of a body compared with the weight of an equal amount of pure water at 4°C (4°C is the temperature at which water is densest). When a body is placed in water‚ the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the body. When the body is placed in water that it
