The vector that would be the
best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy is adeno-associated virus for it
has valuable reasons. First, it is huge enough to carry the gene, second, it
will infect the right type of tissue, third, it will not cause an immune
response and lastly, it infects the particular cells that divide irregularly. Therefore,
this vector will definitely treat cystic fibrosis for it can target affected
cells, which is a great help in the normal functioning of an organ.
Answer:
unicellular - both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
contain mitochondrion - eukaryotes only
are generally less than 2 pm - Prokaryotes only
multicellular - eukaryotes only
lack membrane-bound organelles - prokaryotes only
Explanation:
Prokaryotes are generally unicellular, that is, they are made up of single cells only. However, there are unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes with some eukaryotes like humans and advanced plants having as many as millions of cells.
Prokaryotes generally lack nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles such as chloroplast and mitochondrion. Eukaryotes on the other hand have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondrion and chloroplast.
When it comes to size, prokaryotes are generally small and microscopic while eukaryotes consist of both microscopic and macroscopic cells or organisms. However, prokaryotes are generally smaller than microscopic eukaryotes.
Earths food chain starts with the sun then it goes to producers such as plants that absorbs the sun’s energy to produce their own “food”
The answer is False. The mediastinum is not a cartilage that
forms the lower portion of the breast bone, the mediastinum is the middle part
of the chest cavity, which is located between the lungs of an individual. The
Mediastinum is the area located between the lungs, it contains organs such as
the heart and its large arteries and veins. It may also include the trachea,
the esophagus, the bronchi and last but not the least the lymph nodes.
