Regarding the cultivation of animal cells in vitro, it is correct to state that: *(Only one statement is correct)
a) Transformed cells differ from normal and established cells in that they have the ability to proliferate indefinitely in culture b) Transformed cells derive from isolated and dissected tumors, constituting cell lines that have limited cultivation time
c) The genetic instability presented in normal cells makes them preferential models for the production of recombinant proteins
d) Cells cultured in adhesion must be periodically expanded, through the use of enzymes such as trypsin
e) The metabolism of carbon sources in the culture medium by animal cells generates products such as lactate, which positively influence their productivity

- In addition to the many pharmaceutical products available to treat various diseases, there are also many “natural remedies” that may treat the same diseases, though they do not have FDA approval. For example, Dramamine was developed to treat nausea, but many tout ginger as an effective remedy for nausea. Despite the potential of these natural remedies, pharmaceutical companies do not invest in the development of these natural remedies to obtain FDA approval. Explain why this is the case, and what might be a potential solution to this underinvestment.arrow_forwardUsually, bacteria only make tryptophan when tryptophan is absent or available in low concentration. However, a particular bacterial mutation makes tryptophan all the time whether or not tryptophan is present. What could explain this phenotype? A) the terminator hairpin is unable to form B) the antiterminator hairpin is unable to form C) trpE is mutated D) trpD is mutated E) trpA is mutatedarrow_forwardwhat is a designer drug?arrow_forward
- a) enzymes are used to assemble an insulin gene, which is then attached to bacterial DNA. b) bacterial DNA is cut from a human DNA strand and inserted into a human cell to form an insulin gene. c) the insulin gene is cut out of a human DNA strand using an enzyme and inserted into bacterial DNA, thereby enabling the bacteria to produce a human protein. d) a gene is deleted from bacterial DNA to produce an insulin gene, which is then inserted into human DNA.arrow_forwardBelow, you can see a picture of an antimicrobial drug.

Patient A got better and was released from the hospital in two days, but it took a week for patient b to recover and be sent home. That’s interesting though dr toboggan. “Why did the drug work differently in the two patients? Remedesivir seemed to help one patient but not the other. Maybe the drug speeds up recovery but the patients had different levels of infection. Or, maybe remdesvir didn’t have any effect on recovery, and the patients were just at a different places in their infections by the Novel corona virus. To find which hypothesis was a better explanation her data, Dr To boggan applies a little deductive reading. “What if I set up a situation where I have two patients at the same point in their infection and I give one the drug and one not? If remedesivir speeds up recovery, then the one with the drug will recover faster. But if…arrow_forwardWhat in your opinion can the biomedical engineer do to help in the cure of COVID-19?arrow_forward
