Differences in Restriction sites on homologous chromosomes, result in different size, short and long, restriction fragment patterns
Analyze it
They are scattered abundantly throughout genomes. In DNA There is RFLP markers and there is more than one restriction site. Since there is more than one cut, it causes the fragments to be different sizes and sequences than the normal allele.
Apply it
They can be used as markers for disease-causing alleles.
Synthesize
This reminds me of a flag or a warning sign that is marking something because RFLPs can serve as a genetic marker for a particular location.
Argue
I argue for this because if a person has the version of the RFLP marker with two restriction sites near the gene then there is a high probability that they inherited the disease-causing allele.
If someone has something bad in there genes, a scientist might be able to go in, isolate that specific gene and cure it by inserting the normal RNA sequence.
Apply
In bone marrow, you can inject cloned RNA that is absent, into the bone marrow.
synthesize
This reminds us of a surgery because if a person is missing something or needs something a doctor can go in and replace or repair.
argue
We are for this because if someone is missing something essential, now we can perform a cloning process and inject it into the person who needs it.
gene from one animal injected into genome of another animal
analyze
First, they remove the egg cells from a female and fertilize them in vitro. They already have cloned the desired gene from another organism. They then inject the cloned DNA directly into the nuclei of the fertilized eggs.
apply
Transgenic animals can have a gene from a human which can then be used as a treatment for certain things such as sheep having human blood protein which then results in an evaluation for a treatment of cystic fibrosis.
synthesize
This reminds us of medicine because you add stuff to it to make it stronger or cure bigger and more things.
argue
We argue for this because this can make many things in animals safer for humans and even be used as a treatment for certain things.
The most common way scientist do this process is by using a plasmid, specifically a Ti plasmid. This plasmid takes it own DNA and puts it into the host DNA. This process of putting recombinant Ti plasmids into plants is called electroporation.
Apply
This can greatly be used in farming/agriculture. The reasoning for this is because if every farmer had the elite plant, we would have better and more food.
Synthesize
This reminds us of rice crispies because if you have a bowl of plain rice crispies they aren't very good, just like a normal plant. But when you add sugar, or a Ti plasmid in plants, it becomes something totally different. It tastes great!
Argue
We are for this because it makes the best plant possible.

See how this corn looks luscious and perfect, it This corn, on the other hand, wasn't genetically
was genetically altered to be like that. and because of that it is dead and useless.
Someone's DNA can be tested and matched to other DNA samples.
Analyze
When a piece of DNA, whether it be blood, hair, semen, fingerprints, ext, a scientist can take that DNA and use antibodies to detect specific cell-surface proteins. Southern blotting is a common test used in forensics. DNA fingerprints are testing marks on a piece of DNA that is used to match others with because it is very unlikely for a person to have an exact DNA fingerprint as someone else unless they are identical twins.
Apply
Saw you have a crime scene and all you have is a single strand of hair. Well now with this technology a piece of hair is a huge lead.
Synthesize
This reminds us of a muddy kitchen floor. We were reminded of this because one day my mom saw mud from the back door across the kitchen floor. Instead of yelling right away she looked at the pattern of mud and matched the marks to the bottom of my shoe. I got busted.
Argue
we are for this because it is a great use for science because it is a way to prove things. Instead of just accusing someone of something there is a way to prove it now.

This is a picture of a fingerprint match using DNA fingerprinting to take special points and match them.
