The main application of plasmids is as 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

1. Gradient of a scalar field function Scalar Function: Generally‚ What Is Scalar Function? The Answer Is that a scalar function may be defined as A function of one or more variables whose range is one-dimensional‚ as compared to a vector function‚ whose range is three-dimensional (or‚ in general‚ -dimensional). Scalar Field When We Talk about Scalar Field‚ We Are Talking about the Scalar Function Being Applied to a Space (More like Euclenoid Space etc) or‚ a scalar field associates

The Vector equation of a plane To find the vector equation of a plane a point on the plane and two different direction vectors are required. The equation is defined as: where a is the point on the plane and b and c are the vectors. This equation can then be written as: The Cartesian equation of a plane The cartesian equation of the plane is easier to use. The equation is defined as: One of the advantages to writing the equation in cartesian form is that we can easily find the normal

Computer as a tool Nicholas O. Williams Raster Images vs. Vector Images Assignment: Discuss the differences‚ advantages and disadvantages. There are two major types of images used by graphic design programs‚ they are called Vector and Raster images. This paper will seek to highlight the many differences‚ advantages and disadvantages respectively. Raster images are complex renderings made up of thousands of little dots or pixels. The word raster has its origin in Latin which means ‘rake’

Projectile Motion Vectors There are multiple ways to represent an object’s motion. If the motion is two-dimensional and lies in a plane‚ some representations include: (1) recording x and y coordinates of the object at different times in a data table; (2) displaying the object’s x and y locations at regular time intervals on a diagram; (3) drawing vectors showing displacement‚ velocity‚ and acceleration and their x and y components at different times. (4) using vector equations to represent

AN ANALYSIS OF THE INTEGRATED MALARIA VECTOR CONTROL POLICY IN GHANA INTRODUCTION Malaria is a major public health problem in Ghana. It is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality‚ especially in children under five years of age and pregnant women. It is the most common cause of outpatient visits‚ hospitalization and death. Malaria is also a development problem as it has a serious socio-economic impact on families and the nation‚ through loss of work‚ school absenteeism and high levels
