The gene that codes for an enzyme to breakdown lipids in humans was spliced into rapidly dividing mice cells, which are then grown in the laboratory. Explain why scientists would perform this procedure.

It is likely that the researchers are studying the function of this gene that encodes for a lipase enzyme. In molecular biology, it is common to use cell lines which are transfected with constructs that contain genes or gene regions in order to study the function of these genes (or genetic elements )

succession returns a disturbed

ecosystem to a more stable state. this is also classified into two (2) types:

primary succession and secondary succession. the primary succession arises when

a new land is transformed and a bare rock has been exposed providing an environment

that can be occupied for the first time. while, secondary succession occurs

when a previously occupied environment was disturbed that kills much of all its

community
