The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify the correct terms to fill in the blanks marked as A and B in the provided paragraph about the production of human insulin by Eli Lilly in 1983. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Context**: - The question refers to the process of producing human insulin using recombinant DNA technology. - Two DNA sequences corresponding to the A and B chains of insulin were prepared. 2. **Identifying Blank A**: - The blank A is where we need to identify the organism or system used to introduce the DNA sequences for the production of insulin chains. - The options provided include various terms, but we know that the most common organism used in genetic engineering for producing proteins is *E. coli* (Escherichia coli). - Therefore, the correct term for blank A is **E. coli**. 3. **Identifying Blank B**: - The blank B refers to the type of bond formed when the A and B chains of insulin are combined. - The A and B chains of insulin are connected by a specific type of bond. In the case of insulin, the chains are linked by **disulfide bonds**. - Thus, the correct term for blank B is **disulfide bond**. 4. **Final Answer**: - The correct options to fill in the blanks are: - A: **E. coli** - B: **disulfide bond** ### Conclusion: The final answer is: - A: E. coli - B: disulfide bond
