Calorie Count. A 2-ounce serving of traditional dried udon noodles may contain about 190 calories. That's less than 10 percent of the needs in a typical 2,000-calorie diet, making this a waistline-friendly food when eaten in moderate portions. Whole-wheat udon noodles are even lighter, containing just 180 calories in the same serving. Both noodles are somewhat better for weight management than traditional spaghetti, which contains about 211 calories per 2 ounces.
Biogenesis is the production of new living organisms or organelles. The law of biogenesis, attributed to Louis Pasteur, is the observation that living things come only from other living things, by reproduction (e.g. a spider lays eggs, which develop into spiders).
Transgenesis is the process of introducing an exogenous geneâcalled a transgeneâinto a living organism so that the organism will exhibit a new property and transmit that property to its offspring. Transgenesis can be facilitated by liposomes, enzymes, plasmid vectors, viral vectors, pronuclear injection, protoplast fusion, and ballistic DNA injection. Transgenesis can occur in nature. Transgenic organisms are able to express foreign genes because the genetic code is similar for all ...
