List the 3 rules you must follow when WRITING a scientific name.
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The binomial name consists of a genus name and specific epithet. The scientific names of species are italicized. The genus name is always capitalized and is written first; the specific epithet follows the genus name and is not capitalized. There is no exception to this.

Can a catalyst be used over and over again?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
Yes they can because the catalyst does not take part in the chemical reaction and remains unchanged after the reaction has ended.  Biological catalysts are known to be recycled by the bodies in which they work.

Alpa wants to change 0.54 kilometers into a smaller metric unit
wlad13 [49]

If Alpa wants to change 0.54 kilometers into a smaller metric unit, she will be required to multiply.

<h3>What is a Metric unit?</h3>

A Metric unit may be defined as a technique of measurement in which the basic units are the meter, the second, and the kilogram. These units are interchanged with one another by using several formulas of conversion.

The complete question is as follows:

Alpha wants to change 0.54 kilometers into a smaller metric unit. She will have to:

  • multiply
  • divide
  • add
  • subtract

Therefore, If Alpa wants to change 0.54 kilometers into a smaller metric unit, she will be required to multiply.

For example, In case, if she wants to convert 0.54 into meters, then she has to multiply it by 1000, that is, 0.54 * 1000 = 540 meters.

You determine that you have only three copies left of an important DNA fragment, so you decide to amplify it. Using flanking pri
kicyunya [14]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"You determine that you have only 3 copies left of an important DNA fragment, so you decide to amplify it. Using flanking primers, how many PCR cycles would you have to run to generate over one billion (10^9) copies of the fragment? "

Answer:

Approximately 29 cycles of PCR would be required.

Explanation:

As you may already know, PCR is a technique used in molecular biology that allows part of a DNA molecule to be recycled into millions of copies.

PCR allows this replication to be done through cycles. Each PCR cycle lasts about 2 minutes and allows the DNA molecule to undergo the separation of the strands, the binding of the primers and the synthesis of new DNA strands through DNA polymerase. This cycle is usually repeated 32 times, but this number may change depending on the number of copies the researcher thinks is necessary.

In this case, if a researcher wants 10 ^ 9 copies of DNA, he must do the following calculation to find the number of PCR cycles needed:

32 ^ x = 10 ^ 9

x = 28.3 = approximately 29 cycles.
