DMPQ- Difference between totipotent and pluripotent Cells

by

Totipotent cells: Stem cells are characterized according to their degree of potency, which refers to their varying ability to differentiate into different cell types. Totipotent cells are the most potent of all stem cells, and defining them is important for research and the field of regenerative medicine.A totipotent cell is a single cell that can give … Read more DMPQ- Difference between totipotent and pluripotent Cells

DMPQ: Describe in brief Mendel’s Experiments and law of inheritance

by

Mendel’s laws Mendel discovered that, when he crossed purebred white flower and purple flower pea plants (the parental or P generation), the result was not a blend. Rather than being a mix of the two, the offspring (known as the F1 generation) was purple-flowered. When Mendel self-fertilized the F1 generation pea plants, he obtained a … Read more DMPQ: Describe in brief Mendel’s Experiments and law of inheritance

DMPQ- Recently RNA interference was in the news, what do you understand by the term RNAi and write down its application?

by

The term RNA interference (RNAi) was coined to describe a cellular mechanism that uses the gene’s own DNA sequence of the gene to turn it off, a process that researchers call silencing. In a wide variety of organisms, including animals, plants, and fungi, RNAi is triggered by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). During RNAi, long dsRNA is … Read more DMPQ- Recently RNA interference was in the news, what do you understand by the term RNAi and write down its application?
