1. You are extracting DNA from 10 mL of whole blood. WBC's (white blood cells) are collected via centrifugation. WBC concentration is 8 x 106 cells / mL. Answer the following questions. a. How many WBC's can you collect from the 10 mL of whole blood?
Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.

Introduction:
DNA: The entity who is a carrier of genetic information is known as DNA. It is also known as a self-replicating material which is available in all living organisms in the chromosomes. They are also known as Deoxyribonucleic acid in a scientific language.
WBC: WBCs are the one of the important types of blood cells that are generally found in lymph tissues and blood. They develop in the bone marrow. WBCs mainly involved in the fighting against various infections and helps in curing disease. These cell plays important role in body's immune mechanism.
The term “WBC Concentration” is nothing but checking the concentration of cells present in the available blood sample.
