Answer:

There are two main factors that make ocean water more or less dense than about 1027 kg/m3: the temperature of the water and the salinity of the water. Ocean water gets more dense as temperature goes down. So, the colder the water, the more dense it is. Increasing salinity also increases the density of sea water.

When the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used to amplify segments of DNA, the sample is first heated, and then cooled, in cyc

baherus [9]

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

${2^n - (2 * n)}$

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
