Summary Introduction
To determine:
The elements used in a controlled experiment.
Introduction:
An experiment is the main base for scientists to check their hypotheses in a controlled condition. A controlled experiment is an investigation done under regulated conditions, i.e., only one aspect or factor is changed at a time, while all others remain constant. The following elements are very important to design an experiment namely

Molecular Biology Question
You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
Molecular Biology
Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.
