Chapter 8 Flashcards
When DNA from 2 sources are combined into one single piece of DNA
Recombinant DNA
Preferred name of the technique used to determine if DNA comes from a particular individual
DNA profiling
If you commit a crime and leave behind DNA this material can be amplified by what and used to identify you
PCR
Genomic libraries can be constructed using plasmids or
Phages
Standard tool used for DNA profiling by forensic scientists
STR analyses
Why is the whole-genome shotgun method currently the tool of choice for analyzing genomes
It’s fast and inexpensive
Cloning to produce embryonic stem cells
Therapeutic cloning
Separation of cells from whole tissue
Cell extraction
Solid, fell-like, fluid surrounding cells and assist in tissue function and cellular interaction
Extracellular matrix
Separates cells according to fluorescence antibody tag
Fluorescence - activated cell sorter
Undifferentiated s has ability to create different cells
Embryonic stem cells
Evidence that most differentiated cells retain a full set of genes
Plant cloning and animal limb regeneration
Replacing the nucleus of an egg cell or zygote with a nucleus from an adult somatic cell
Nuclear transplantation
Implant embryo in surrogate mother, new animal is genetically identical
Reproductive cloning
Group of cells
Blastoa
Can give rise to many but not an types of cells
Adult stem cells
Remove haploid nucleus from unfertilized egg, insert diploid nucleus
Somatic cell transplantation
Produced by asexual reproduction and genetically identical to parent
Clone
