Please give me the answer.

Arnav said:   8 years ago
The Correct answer is C, because it separates both un-charged & charged molecules.

Girma Gashu said:   8 years ago
Answers B according to the definition of teleportation.

The application of electric city to transfer foreign DNA.

Please tell which is the right answer? Explain.

Sneha K said:   7 years ago
Option A) is the definition of electrophoresis.

Option B) is incorrect because the vector molecule cannot be charged in electroporation.

Option D) is the basic definition of cell division so the answer is definitely option C) because electroporation is applying a high voltage pulse to create a temporary pore in the plasma membrane of the cell for introducing the foreign DNA.

Electroporation is a technique used to introduce molecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins or drugs into cells by applying brief electrical plus to create temporary pores in the cell membrane.

Correct answer: the application of high voltage pulses.

The other options describe different processes:

The process of separating charged molecules through a gel maintained in an electric field: This refers to gel electrophoresis, a technique used to separate DNA, RNA, or proteins based on their size and charge.

The process of combining foreign DNA to an electrically charged vector molecule: This could refer to a method of ligation or DNA cloning but is not specific to electroporation.

The process of multiplication of the cells: This refers to cell proliferation or cell division, which is not related to electroporation.
