DNA Cloning PCB3063L Section DNA cloning refers to the process of making multiple copies of a DNA fragment. For the past weeks we have conducted a set of experiments that allow us to clone a specific gene in drosophila. First we started by the process of DNA extraction‚ which allowed us to isolate the genomic DNA from D. Melanogaster. This process requires the use of lysis in other to extract the DNA and RNA. After extracting the DNA‚ we it is important to use

DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA)‚ but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). The order‚ or sequence‚ of

Explain why did‚ the Menshevik and Bolshevik split happened in 1903? Until 1903 the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks were a single party called the Social democrats. They wanted a communist Russia‚ following the ideas of Marxism. However with in the party of the social democrats there were two men‚ Lenin and Plekhanov whom of which had two completely different ideas on how the party was going to be successful in achieving the revolution‚ causing a split in the social democrats. Both parties’ were

EFFECTS OF NITROGEN FIXING PEA PLANTS (Pisum sativum) ON GROWTH OF CORN (Zea mays) Introduction Interactions among plant species‚ particularly negative ones‚ have been a concern in agriculture (Levene 1926‚ Russell 1961). Novoa (1981) suggested that it would be advantageous to rotate certain crops by season‚ grow certain crops together‚ or avoid growing certain crops on the same land. Observations indicated that some crops require specific types of nutrients in contrast to other crop

HERO HONDA SPLIT A joint venture between the Hero Group and Honda Motor Company was established in 1984 as the Hero Honda Motors Limited At Dharuhera India. Hero is the brand name used by the Munjal brothers for their flagship company Hero Cycles Ltd. Munjal family and Honda group both own 26% stake in the Company. However the Hero Honda group is set for a split in the end of 2010. After the split the Munjal family will buy Honda Motor’s 26% stake for around $1 billion‚ or a little less than half

Research question/Aim Extract copper from copper oxide by reduction using butane gas Hypothesis The butane gas will reduce the copper oxide and leave behind pure copper. This will allow us to find the empirical formula of the copper oxide as well as the masses of oxygen and copper Variables Dependant variable The dependant variable will be the reduction of the copper oxide which will be calculated at different temperatures. Independent variable The independent variable here

main source of evidence. Notoriously unreliable‚ these techniques have since faded away to the stunning reliability of DNA forensics. In 1984‚ British geneticist Alec Jeffreys of the University of Leicester discovered an interesting new marker in the human genome. Most DNA information is the same in every human‚ but the junk code between genes is unique to every person. Junk DNA used for investigative purposes can be found in blood‚ saliva‚ perspiration‚ sexual fluid‚ skin tissue‚ bone marrow‚ dental
