Answer from: soogy

There are several benefits of using DNA technology in medicines as recombinant DNA technology has helped to produce artificial human insulin. It also helps in improving the food production quality by genetic modifications such as high nutrition value and long shelf life.

The mass production of the antigens for vaccines from bacteria and viruses with recombinant DNA technology is likely to be safe for certain diseases for which no preventive measures are available at present.

DNA technology uses the ability of the DNA to be manipulated and combine in new ways causing advancement in the technology of medicines. The medicines produced by the DNA technology have cheaper cost of production and thus it makes it the most important benefit of using DNA technology in medicine production. The various vaccines produced by the DNA technology are produced and distributed in large quantities with cheaper rates.

The medicines produced by the DNA technology is capable of screening the genetic disorders. Therefore, this technology can be used for production of medicines at cheaper costs.

Some examples of medicines or vaccines prepared by the DNA technology are hepatitis B vaccine, insulin and human growth hormone.

You will create a molecular clock model for an arthropod gene. follow these guidelines to make your model: . your timeline will span from 90 million years ago to the present. the common ancestor in your model is an arthropod that lived 90 million years ago. the gene that you'll track codes for a protein in the species venom . the dna sequence youll track contains 10 nitrogen bases. you can choose the order of the bases and where the mutations occur. this gene mutates at a rate of approximately 0.76 base pairs every 17.1 million years. to build your model,/ calculate the estimated time period it takes for 1 base pair to mutate. the first time period will only show the common ancestor. at the beginning of the second time period, three lineages will diverge from the common ancestor, each with a different mutation in their gene sequences. the first and third descendant species will survive for the rest of the timeline. the second descendant species was extinct 50 million years ago. calculate how long it will take for one full base pair mutation to occur. explain your reasoning by constructing a mathematical equation
