Genes that code for a specific protein can be inserted into bacterial plasmids, and then the plasmids are used to transform cells. Many useful human proteins are now synthesized by these transgenic bacteria. Uses for the
synthesized proteins include human insulin used to treat diabetes and human growth hormone used to treat
dwarfism.

All cells come from pre-existing cells by division.
C)
The cell is the structural and functional unit of all living things.
D)

during cell division.

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)
