2. Identify the point (substitution) mutation from the following DNA sequence:ATG CCA AAT
3. Despite the successful cloning of human embryos, much of this research has been halted due to:
4. Where does protein synthesis take place?
5. A set of steps where genes from one organism are placed into the DNA of an organism of a different species, with the goal of having that organism produce the trait of the other species
6. Reorder the steps of carrying out electrophoresis:1.Cut DNA sample with restriction enzymes and amplify them by PCR2.Place Agarose gel in the chamber facing well to negative electrode and add buffer solution3.Loading sample with a micropipette4.Covered the chamber and apply electrical current5. Remove the gel and stained to visualise the bands
7. Which career field is most related to biotechnology?
8. Scientists have taken the DNA from one adult pig and put it into the egg cell of a different adult female pig. After inserting the egg cell into the womb a female pig, it developed and was born. That newly born pig had exactly the same DNA as the pig who donated its DNA for the process
