What is HGP read? How it is different from HGP write? List down the application of Human genome project?

by

The Human genome project was a large, international and multi-institutional effort that took 13 years from 1999 and $2.7 billion to produce a blueprint of the sequence of genes and space between  genes that make up a typical human genome. Following were the observation of HGP (read)- 99% of the total human DNA is junk … Read more What is HGP read? How it is different from HGP write? List down the application of Human genome project?

DMPQ- What is carbon date and How they are useful?

by

Carbon dots are fluorescent nanoparticles that show similar physical and optical properties to the well-known semiconductor quantum dots. However, the building block of carbon dots is made primarily out of carbon, with some doped heteroatoms, creating a nanoparticle that is more biocompatible and less toxic compared with the quantum dots that commonly contain heavy metals. … Read more DMPQ- What is carbon date and How they are useful?

DMPQ- . What are the future economic implications of moon missions.

by

Answer. Moon exploration has many possibilities: We could make use of lunar resources to facilitate scientific and economic activity in the vicinity of both Earth and Moon (so-called cis-lunar space) as well as future exploration deeper into the Solar System. We can consider the importation of lunar resources to the Earth’s surface where they would … Read more DMPQ- . What are the future economic implications of moon missions.

DMPQ: Nitrogen pollution is more dangerous than carbon pollution. How nitrogen affects our ecosystem. (Science)

by

:  Nitrogen is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere and it is in inert form. But when it converts into reactive form like ammonia, nitrous oxide and nitrogen di oxide, it become dangerous for the ecosystem in many ways. Nitrogenous gases also play an important role in global climate change. Nitrous oxide is a particularly … Read more DMPQ: Nitrogen pollution is more dangerous than carbon pollution.

DMPQ:Write a short note on Totipotency.

by

Many somatic plant cells, including some fully differentiated types (e.g. leaf mesophyll),provided they contain intact nuclear, plastid and mitochondrial genomes, have the capacity to regenerate into whole plants. This phenomenon is totipotency.Totipotent cells from plants have been used in tissue-culture techniques to produce improved plant materials that are pathogen-free and disease-resistant. Totipotent cells fromanimals are … Read more DMPQ:Write a short note on Totipotency.
