If you could genetically engineer any species of organism, what would it be? Would it be a unicorn? A dog-cat hybrid? Your own personal pet giant? Choose any species—real or not—that your imagination desires! Write a paragraph describing your species, what it looks like, and where it lives. Think of any inherited traits the species has that might help it survive in its environment. Thinking of these traits now can help you come up with allele combinations in the next step. Now describe your species in the answer space.

Which of the following matches the organisms described with the correct domain? a. bacteria--unicellular, eukaryotic organisms with cell walls that do not contain peptidoglycanb. archaea--multicellular, eukaryotic organisms that do not have cell wallsc. eukarya--single-celled and multicellular organisms, with a defined nucleus and a variety of nutritional sourcesd. bacteria--unicellular, eukaryotic organisms that always lack cell walls

Despite the differences in mature plant cells, all of them are derived from meristem cells. the three major types of tissue systems develop from the meristem. meristems develop cells in all but which tissue?

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?
