of mitosis is not involved in any sex cell‚ and meiosis is not involved in any cell with the exception of sex cells. Since meiosis has more cells involved (parent cells) this process has a few more steps than what mitosis does. There are several similarities between the process of mitosis and meiosis. For example both processes occur at the cellular level. Both processes share genetic material from the parent cell to the daughter cell. In conclusion without meiosis we would not be created and therefore

How do we know we know what each individual gene does? One way to investigate the function of a gene is to just remove the gene and analyze what happens to the organism. Let’s say we have a gene of unknown function in the human genome‚ an unidentified gene. First‚ compare it to other genes to see what similar sequences they have‚ if they code some similar sequences they might code for similar functions. However‚ if the gene the unidentified gene codes for something different we have seen before this

Gene therapy is an experimental treatment‚ which is used to replace mutated‚ improperly functioning genes with regular DNA. There are several gene therapy methods‚ most of which involve using a vector to transport the corrected gene into targeted cells. Retroviruses‚ adenoviruses‚ adeno associated viruses and liposomes are commonly used as vectors. Naked DNA (DNA without a vector) has also been used in gene therapy. Recently‚ gene therapy has been used as a treatment for deadly genetic conditions
