The utility of stable isotope labeling of RNA (RNA-SIP) is that cells do not need be actively dividing in order to incorporate radioactive precursors into ribosomal RNA.

Answer the following statements as they relate to the two enrichment protocols for metagenomic analysis of soil samples detailed below. Stable isotope labeling involves the use of a precursor such as 13C labeled methane. BrdU based labeling involves the use of the modified nucleotide 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine.  1. Used for the enrichment of metabolically active cells in a population [option1] 2. Used to enrich for organisms that metabolize pollutants like phenol [option2] 3. Method uses an antibody to select for the enriched population [option3] 4. Generates a ‘heavier’ nucleic acid compared to unlabeled population [option4] 5. Output from the process can be analyzed by direct sequencing [option5] 6. Can be used to analyze environmental DNA or RNA in a sample [option6]

The ultimate goal of a microbial fuel cell is to

The generation of pathogen resistant transgenic plants relies on the introduction of foreign DNA into the host system. There are no examples where the disruption of the plant genome induces a beneficial phenotype.
