Question

transgenic organisms are produced through recombinant dna technology and can be patented. true false question 2 (1 point) mic determines how much antimicrobial agent to use in vivo. true false question 3 (1 point) during recombinant dna technology dna is inserted by a vector. identify a vector from the list below: genome plasmid recombinant protein

Explanation:

• Question 1: Transgenic organisms are created using recombinant DNA technology. In many countries, such organisms (especially in the context of biotechnology and certain types of inventions) can be patented. For example, some genetically - modified microorganisms or plants with specific traits have been patented.
• Question 2: MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) is determined in vitro (in a test - tube or laboratory dish, not in vivo). It is the lowest concentration of an antimicrobial agent that inhibits visible growth of a microorganism. The in - vivo dosage of an antimicrobial agent depends on many factors like pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion) in the host, in addition to the MIC value.
• Question 3: In recombinant DNA technology, a plasmid is a common vector. A plasmid is a small, circular, double - stranded DNA molecule that can replicate independently of the chromosomal DNA in a host cell. It can be used to carry foreign DNA (the gene of interest) into a host cell. A genome is the complete set of genetic material of an organism, recombinant refers to the DNA that has been combined (not a vector type in the traditional sense here), and a protein is not a vector for DNA insertion in recombinant DNA technology.

Answer:

1. True
2. False
3. Plasmid
