How many molecules of DNA would result from one molecule after four cycles of PCR

Answer: B.16

Explanation

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a technique used in molecular biology to make millions of copies DNA from a small amount of it. To acomplish this, short segments of DNA called primers are designed to each chain of the DNA that is going to be copied. Then, the DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to theose primers that will be complementary to the DNA chains. After one molecule is amplified, a new molecule is amplified using that one and so on and so forth. <u>Then, 2 chains are amplified in one cycle to get 2 molecules</u> (with two chains each) Thereby, the replication rate of DNA is exponential, then it is calculated as:

1 x (2^4) = 16 DNA molecules.

1= molecule

2= chains per molecule

4= number of cycles

I think the answer should be 16 because 1×2^4=16

Keratinocytes are differentiated skin cells found in the outermost layer of the epidermis. Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells that play important roles in the adaptive immune response.

  • In addition to keratinocytes, the <em>stratum spinosum</em> also contains another epidermal cell type called epidermal DENDRITIC cells that help to fight infection.

  • The s<em>tratum spinosum</em><em> </em>is an epidermal skin layer between the <em>stratum granulosum </em>and<em> stratum basale</em>.

  • Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells that are capable of processing harmful antigens in order to present them on the cell surface to the T cells of the immune system.

What is "set point theory"? are toxins involved? describe how body size and homeostasis are related?
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>Answer: Set point theory suggests that our body has a particular range of weight that it is comfortable in, usually about 10% of a body’s weight. That means, if you weight 175, you have about an 18 pound range; if you weigh 325, you have about a 33 pound range. Most people lose and gain within this set point on a pretty regular basis. They may put on a little weight in the winter and lose it in the spring. Or get busy and drop a little weight. Or gain a little when stressed. Or lose a little during an illness. Or whatever. Movement within this range is normal. However, movement outside of that range is not. In fact the body seeks homeostasis – that is the body seeks to stay within that range. To move outside of that range something must go on, something must happen to the body.</span>
