Individuals can inherit a defective apc gene on chromosome 5 from one parent that makes them susceptible to developing familial adenomatous polyposis. in which cells is this deletion present in affected individuals?

the correct answer is b. possesses the characteristic of compartmentalization of organelles, wherein the organelles are bound by membranes.

explanation:

ans.

dna fingerprinting is defined as a process that determines the dna characteristics of an individual. these dna characteristics are unique among individuals as their fingerprints, so it is known as dna fingerprinting.

steps of dna fingerprinting includes extraction of dna from sample, amplification of dna, restriction digestion of amplified dna, and then analysis of dna by gel electrophoresis, respectively.

thus, the next step performed by the scientist is 'to cut the amplified dna (obtained by polymerase chain reaction) by restriction enzymes that cleave the dna into fragments and their analysis.'
