Answer 1

Hey there, as per the guidelines, i would like to answer your first two questions, here are your answers.

Choose two societal benefits to recombinant DNA technology. Select all that apply.

A) The correct answers are- development of therapeutic proteins such as insulin and genetically modified crops with resistance genes inserted.

These are the two main fields that have been benefitted a lot by the application of recombinant DNA technology. With the introduction of genetically modified crops, now the f=damage to crops has been reduced and also the cost of pesticides that were used to protect the crops. Also, the development of functional insulin has made the treatment of diabetes easier and cost-effective.

answer)

• Both secondary structures in proteins and DNA are held together by hydrogen bonding interactions.
• In a protein, these interactions are between backbone atoms that are not close to each other and are on the different strand(s).
• In DNA these interactions are between bases that are close to each other, and are on the same strand(s)
