Compare the advantages and disadvantages of batch and continuous culture - ️️Growth rate: Batch has lag, log then stationary phase. Continuous has optimum rate maintained. Ease of set up and maintenance: Batch is easy to set up and run. Continuous is not easy, requires sophisticated equipment a...

What are clones? - ️️Genetically identical copies. The term can apply to cells or whole organisms. How are clones produced? - ️️By asexual reproduction in which the nucleus is divided by mitosis. Mitosis creates two identical copies of DNA, which are then separated into two genetical...

are microorganisms the only organisms used in biotechnology? - ️️other organisms such as goats and cows are also used in biotechnology for example genetically modified goats produce spider silk in their milk and cows have been genetically modified to produce human antibodies describe the natu...
