what is the function of CaCl2 on E coli cells? Solution Calcium chloride alters cell membrane in a way that favors uptake of exogenous plasmid DNA In artificial competence environment creating pores in bacterial cells by suspending them in a solution containing high concentration of calcium chloride prior to the addition of DNA. It involves the exposure of growing bacterial cells to a hypotonic solution of calcium chloride. DNA can then forced in to the Host cell by heat shock treatment for the process of transformation.

Option #1: Stakeholder Influence on Project Outcomes Search the Internet, or any specific websites, and scan IT industry magazines to find an example of an IT project that had problems due to organizational issues. summarizing the key stakeholders for the project and how they influenced the outcome. Solution The various key stackholders of the IT project and their influnces towards project outcome is described below: 1. Customer of Project: Is the main stack holder of the project, customer is someone for whom we are developing the project 2. Project Team Members: They are also the stackholders of the project, they help in the creation of the project. 3. Project Top Management: Is the leader of project team, he makes the project related decision on which project team works. 4. Project Testers: Also plays a vital role in project, thus a key stackholders, They help in testing the project functionality. Examples of the cases where information technology projects fails due to organizational issues are given below: i) Failure of HealthMatch Project: This project started in year 2002. Its started with the budget of over $13 million. This project basically deals in following three departments: 1) Health care systems 2) The employee work flow 3) Portal for client In the very next year in 2003, during audit its found that the estimated income is not matching with the actual income due to various organizational changes as well as disputes. So ultimately this project fails. ii) Failure of SAP Software: In year 2007, Los Angeles Unified School District invested around over $90 million on the SAP software, that is replacing their old system. The SAP software system was prepared by organization named as deloitte. There are various reasons for the failure of the SAP project. The various reasons were: 1) The old system itself having some conflicting and wrong data, that leads to wrong data in SAP software. 2) Employess are less prepaired to used the latest SAP system. 3) Lack of training amond the employees for the SAP software. 4) There were no valid policy for the data migration between old system to new SAP system. Top Management Support successful IT Projects. Top management of any organization plays a vital role in project success, They are the one who communicate with customers and take customer requirement, they on their own ends negotiate with customers regarding project cost, its deadlines and about functionality needed. They are the one\'s who clearify all the project details before the actual exection of the project. Top management also helps in providing the resources required at various levels of the projects. The quality resources provided by the top management is the key of sucessful IT Project, because resources are the basic building blocks of a successful project.

In the right conditions, DNA structure is stable to the degree that it has been isolated from prehistoric animals. What structural characteristics of RNA and proteins ( as opposed to DNA) have left them short (generally) in terms of serving as the genetic storage unit of cells? In the right conditions, DNA structure is stable to the degree that it has been isolated from prehistoric animals. What structural characteristics of RNA and proteins ( as opposed to DNA) have left them short (generally) in terms of serving as the genetic storage unit of cells? Solution The structure of RNA and proteins is more vulnerable to damage than DNA because of their inherent structural differences. The major difference is stability is because RNA is single stranded so it is not stable as it does not have the hydrogen bonds it just has covalent bonds between the sugar and phosphate group the proteins, they fold by forming disulfide bonds which can easily break on heating because they are not as strong as the hydrogen bonds that are formed between the bases of DNA..
