Answer:
At least 17 PCR cycles or 16 PCR cycles
Explanation:
As we know -
In one chain of heating and cooling of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the strands of DNA gets doubled.
The general mathematical representation of this is
where "n" is the number of PCR cycles.
It is given that DNA strands to be produced is 16 times the original quantity of DNA.
So the PCR cycle must be carried out at least 17 times in order to have DNA strand not less than 16 times the original quantity of DNA
Answer:
Animal clade
Explanation:
<em>A clade is used to refer to all members of group of organisms that share the same ancestor.</em>
Animals are the only group of living organisms that are eukaryotic, multicellular as well as heterotrophic in nature.
They are eukaryotic because their cells have nucleus and membrane-bound organelles like mitochondrion and chloroplast.
They are multicellular because their bodies are made up of more than one cells. The simplest animal (sponge) is made up of several cells while the most complex animal (human) is made up of millions of cells.
Animals are heterotrophs because they lack the capacity to manufacture their own food. They depend on external source for their food. Particular, animals ingest their foods, digest it internally and egest undigested food/waste materials.
Explanation:
To protect the animals, plants, and more. Without having the habitats they'll die/go extinct. The plants will soon rot/wither away.
Answer:
Eukarya - (D)
Explanation:
Organisms belonging to the plant kingdom are eukaryotic and multicellular organisms. They have a distinct cell wall made of cellulose. Cells are organised into true plant tissues. Plants contain plastids and photosynthetic pigments such as chlorophyll.
