Prokaryotes reproduce asexually by binary fission; they can also exchange genetic material by transformation, transduction, and conjugation.
The term used to describe an organic cofactor is that this common chemistry allow cells to use a small set of metabolic intermediates to carry chemical groups between different reactions. These group-transfer intermediates are the loosenly-bound organic cofactors, often called coenzymes.
Recombinant DNA is DNA that has been created using intelligent design methods to modify a base DNA molecule using DNA component elements from other strands of DNA of other organisms. There are a wide range of possible DNA elements that can be removed, added to or otherwise modified to produce the new recombinant form.
Recombinant DNA technology clearly is genetic engineering using intelligent design as the selection and placement of the added DNA components must be planned and precisely selected and placed to accomplish the intended result. It does not happen naturalistically.
There are numerous aspects of the growing technology of recombinant DNA that modify DNA to serve the purpose of the intelligent designers, including wide ranges of research, medicine, synthetic biology, potential commercial products and even scientific curiosity.
Answer:
B. The father did not contribute a sex chromosome to his daughter due to nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes. The daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.
A.The mother's X chromosomes failed to separate during meiosis, and the daughter inherited two X chromosomes with the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. The father contributed no sex chromosomes.
Explanation:
As seen in the question above, a little girl was diagnosed with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, which is an X-linked recessive condition caused by a mutation in the HPRT1 gene responsible for purine metabolism.
The little girl's parents do not have the syndrome, and no one in the little girl's paternal family presented this syndrome, however, we know that the maternal grandfather of the little girl's mother had the syndrome, which means that it was the mother's genetic material that contributed to the development of the syndrome in the little girl. This was because the little girl did not receive any X chromosomes from her father, but she inherited the two X chromosomes from her mother that coded for the Lesch-Nyhan mutation. This happened because the mother's X chromosome disjuction did not occur during meiosis I.
As shown above, the father did not contribute any sex chromosomes to his daughter, which means that the daughter is XO and her only X chromosome came from her mother, who was a carrier.
