NU 545 UNIT 7 TEST STUDY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 100% CORRECT | LATEST UPDATE 2025 In somatic cell gene therapy, what type of vector is most commonly used to alter a specific set of an individual's somatic cells? a. Virus b. Bacteria c. RNA polymerase d. Recombinant DNA - ANSWER ANS: A In somatic cell gene therapy, a vector is used to carry a normal copy of the mutated gene into the individual's cells. These vectors are usually viruses, such as retroviruses, lentiviruses, or adenov...

1. growth media nutrient-rich environment for isolating and culturing microorganisms - liquid or solid 2. LB media (lysogeny broth) Most common nutrient Broth Known for ability to grow vast array of microbes 3. Selective Media allows for growth of specific microbes, while restricting the growth of other microbes often used to grow human pathogens, or slower growing microbes. The selectivity allows for discounting foreign unwanted microbes 4. Differential Media allows growth of several...
