Answer;

A. The amount of A equals the amount of T, and the amount of G equals the amount of C

C. The tetra nucleotide hypothesis is false

Explanation;

Chargaff's rule states that DNA from any cell of any organism has a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine, a purine base, is equal to cytosine, a pyrimidine base; and the amount of adenine, a purine base, is equal to thymine, a pyrimidine base.

Chargaff's rules are important because they point to a kind of “grammar of biology”, a set of hidden rules that govern the structure of DNA.

Which DNA fingering technique examines the length variation of DNA repeat sequences in human DNA?

DiKsa [7]

Answer: The question is incorrect, below is the correct question

Which DNA FINGERPRINTING technique examines the length variation of DNA repeat sequences in human DNA?

The correct answer to the question is option D

mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) analysis

Explanation: DNA fingerprinting technique is a laboratory technique used by geneticists.it entails placing of DNA samples into wells,these wells are then placed in a slab of gels and thereafter passing a current through the gel.This is done to ascertain the uniqueness of a DNA pattern and thus be able to differentiate people of same species.

There are several methods of DNA fingerprinting as outlined in the options given with the question.

In mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) analysis,The Genetic samples are extracted from the biological materials, these samples extracted are total genomic DNA like hair,tooth or samples of blood, Several copies of these genomic DNA are then produced using a polymerase chain reaction and flanking primers inorder to examines the length variation of DNA repeat sequences in human DNA.
