DNA replication mechanism is an integral and the most important part of cell division. It is a complicated mechanism that requires a lot of steps and different enzymes. Many scientists were trying to understand the mechanism of DNA replication and its role in the transfer of the hereditary information to the offsprings. DNA replication begins with a single origin of replication that starts off the process by creating a replication bubble. In many eukaryotic cells‚ the DNA strand will have more than

Hyper loop The hyper loop consists of a pair of steel tubes‚ normally elevated‚ which are evacuated to 0.015 psi. This not quite a hard vacuum but "soft" enough that relatively ordinary equipment can be used to maintain it‚ and some tiny leaks can be tolerated. This is about the same pressure as a spacecraft flying at about 30 miles would feel. Pretty low drag‚ but far from zero‚ especially at the proposed 760mph‚ approximately 1/1000th of sea-level drag. The vehicle is substantially smaller

POSITION PAPER ON THE OODA LOOP 1. The OODA loop is a critical thinking and decision making tool used by the military‚ businesses and regular people because it is one of the best. While many processes require step by step obedience‚ any of the steps in the OODA loop can be put into the “wrong” order to fit the needs of the situation. OODA stands for observe‚ orient‚ decide‚ act. 2. Observation is where an individual soaks up raw data and sorts it into relevant and non-relevant. Without the

Also‚ to transform E.coli DH5α cells by introducing the plasmids DNA which contains the gene of interests into the E.coli strain(DH5α). The plasmid DNA can replicate inside the transformed E.coli DH5α cells‚ only successful transformed cells can produce the protein that is resistance to kanamycin‚ this allows for the selection of successful transformed cells. 2.

TRANSCRIPTION: Transcription is the process of which DNA matches corresponding RNA bases‚ Transcription is located in the Nucleus‚ and the only type of RNA that is involved in Transcription is mRNA‚ and the purpose is so that the code can get out of the Nucleus‚ mRNA is also made through Transcription‚ It also takes information that doesn’t directly make proteins but it helps makes codes for the production of proteins‚ DNA Transcription consist of 4 nucleotide bases‚ Adenine‚ Thymine‚ Cytosine‚ Guanine

Count-Controlled Loops and While Loops Count-controlled: control variable (or loop counter) initial value of the control variable increment (or decrement) by which the control variable is modified each iteration through the loop condition that tests for the final value of the control variable A count-controlled repetition will exit after running a certain number of times. The count is kept in a variable called an index or counter. When the index reaches a certain value (the loop bound) the loop will

Using agarose gel electrophoresis is to separate and visualize the DNA fragment‚ which is produced by restriction enzymes . Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to measure the size of the fragments of DNA and separate

In order to read DNA‚ it must be sequenced. This sequencing uses electrophoresis‚ a technique that separates sections of DNA that differ by a base. Electrophoresis used to be done manually‚ but was error prone and time consuming. Now‚ automatic sequencing machines are used. A technician begins the process by pouring gel between two glass plates that are set less than half a millimeter apart. After the gel is set up‚ DNA is put into each of the ninety-six lanes. The DNA sections then move through
