Map location of genes found in the human genome
14
What were some of the implications of the human genome project?
We were able to develop a treatment called gene therapy
We were able to develop new ways to diagnosis, treat, cure
We were able to get rid of all human disease
A and C
15
When joining together two pieces of DNA from different organisms...
You must use the SAME restriction enzyme to cut them
You must use their cousin restriction enzyme to cut them
You must use their BFF restriction enzyme to cut them
You must use a DIFFERENT restriction enzyme to cut them
16
Why are "sticky ends" significant? What do they help us do?
They fit together and allow us to combine DNA
They stick to the DNA and allow us to clone
They get stuck to the nucleus and make recombinant DNA
They fit together and allow us to combine RNA
