URGENT WILL GIVE BRAINLINESS
Choose one of the following scenarios and answer the questions provided. Support your answers using scientific reasoning and discussing possible impacts to individuals, society, and the environment. Be sure to also discuss any medical or ethical issues that may apply. (10 points)
Scenario 1:

Genetic engineering can be used to create more productive strains of farm animals. By adding genes to an animal's DNA, the animal can be made to produce milk or meat containing vital nutrients that would not be found naturally in those products. This provides a greater amount of nutrients per serving of milk or meat.

Do you think that this type of genetic engineering should be pursued? Explain your answer. (5 points)

What are some possible impacts (positive and negative) of this type of genetic engineering on individuals, society, and the environment? (5 points)

Scenario 2:

In the future, doctors may be able to evaluate your DNA to check for genetic markers related to specific medical conditions or harmful reactions to medications. Your personalized genetic profile could be kept on record and referred to in order to develop personal medical treatment based on your unique DNA sequencing. Scientists have found that just small variations in a specific section of your DNA can help determine how well some medications can work for you or if they would be beneficial at all.

Would you want to have your DNA profile kept in your medical record as a reference for your doctors? Explain your answer. (2 points)

What are potential pros and cons of having such tests done and referring to DNA sequences when determining a patient's medical treatment? (5 points)

Describe how the availability of this technology might affect the frequency of genetic diseases in individuals and populations. (3 points)

Answer:

i tried my best (so many questions on scenario 2)

Explanation:

scenario 1: there are many positive and negative possible impacts that come with genetic engineering. A very negative outcome could come from just one mistake.  But if there was a way to ensure that nothing could go wrong than the outcome would be an healthy new meat or milk that's packed with nutrients.

scenario 2:  I think if this was a real thing i would be completely for it. If a person was to get their DNA checked then doctors would be able to prescribe a medication that would fit you. this could also prevent any allergic reactions to and medications or treatments.

I personally would want my DNA profile kept on record so that i can be treated with the right medications for me.

Suppose an explorer discovered a unique new species of plant and collected a sample for analysis by a geneticist. The geneticist then isolated chromatin from the plant sample and examined the chromatin using electron microscopy. The chromatin observed was organized in a way that is similar to beads on a string A small amount of nuclease was then added, which was observed to cleave the string into individual beads that each contained 280 bp of DNA.
Histone H1 H2A H2B H3 H4 H7 (new histone)
Percentage 12.5% 25% 25% 0% 26%
After thorough digestion with more nuclease, only a 120 bp fragment of DNA remained attached to a core of histone eins. Analysis of the histone core revealed the data dicated in the table to the right.
Using the data provided, determine the conclusions that the geneticist could make about the likely structure of the nucleosome in the chromatin of this new plant species
A. The nucleosome core contains a heterodimer of the histones H7 and H1
B. The nucleosome core contains two each of histones H2A, H2B, and H4
C. The nucleosome core contains a homodimer of the histones H2A, H2B, and H4
D. The nucleosome core contains one each of histones H1 and H7
E. The nucleosome core histone H7 replaces the standard histone H3

(S)-Zearalenone, a natural product isolated from the fungus Gibberella zeae, exhibits useful biological activity, including antibiotic properties. In a total synthesis of (S)-zearalenone, an intramolecular Stille coupling process was employed as the penultimate procedure.3 The resulting coupling product was then treated with HCl to cleave the OR groups, thereby converting them into OH groups (as seen in Section 13.6), giving (S)-zearalenone. Draw the structure of (S)-zearalenone:

Introduction : Scientists who study earth's layers are called geologists. Since they cannot see inside the earth, they use geological clues to help them. These clues are gathered from activities such as volcanoes and earthquakes. From these clues , geologists make inferences about what the inside of Earth actually looks like.
Question: Name the main layers of the Earth from the inside to the surface.

Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) catalyzes a reaction which yields products that regulate cell division; consequently, PP1 is a possible drug target to treat certain types of cancers. The PP1 enzyme cata- lyzes the hydrolysis of a phosphate group from myelin basic protein (MBP). The reaction is shown below:
PP1 MBP-phosphate-→ MBP+P,

Which of the following is the best explanation of the physiological reaction to the length of daylight hours often referred to as photoperiodism? Group of answer choices Plants will only flower during long day periods when the day length exceeds their necessary photoperiod. Plants are able to respond to photoperiodism, but animals are not. Migration is triggered by temperature change and not by photoperiodism. Hibernation is often triggered by photoperiodism.
