Why are fungi fossils so rare?

The reason as to why fungi fossils seem so rare is that they are usually microscopic and often difficult or impossible to identify. Not much information on fungi fossils has been documented. This could be because fungi fruiting bodies consist of soft, fleshy and easily degradable tissues which due to their poor integrity do not keep or preserve as well as animal tissue. Even when available, it takes a trained eye to recognize fungal fossils. Not many people have the training and expertise to recognize the fossils.

Fungi fossils are rare because they deteriorate faster and easier which makes them harder to preserve. And those that get preserved are often too small to be easily identified.

Answer:

complementary DNA (cDNA)

Explanation:

The complementary DNA (cDNA) is a region of DNA that is synthesized from an RNA template by using a reverse transcriptase enzyme. cDNA is usually used to clone genes from eukaryotic organisms in prokaryotes. cDNA cloning is a technique that consists of isolating and amplifying a self-replicating prokaryotic organism that includes in its genome a cDNA of interest. This technique enables the insertion of fragments of eukaryotic DNA (cDNA) into plasmids that subsequently are multiplied by cloning and finally sequenced.

In a strand of DNA, each single nucleotide represents a single letter of the DNA code. The following image represents a segment

OleMash [197]

The immense amount of information stored in DNA is coded with just four base nucleotides. These four nucleotides are paired by twos to form complementary DNA chains.

The makeup of DNA is limited to two pairs of nucleotides bases. One of these pairs is a pyrimidine base whilst the other forms a purine base. The four nucleotides that will make up the entire DNA code are:

Adenine (A)
Guanine (G)
Cytosine (C)
Thymine (T).

A and G will pair to form the purine base, meanwhile, Cytosine pairs with Thymine to form the pyrimidine base. As per the entire DNA code, A will always pair with G.

Whilst C always pairs with T. This is due to the very nature of the nucleotides themselves and will not change throughout the synthesis or duplication of DNA. Therefore, to complete the complementary strand described in the assignment we must match the letter given with its corresponding base pair, using this rule of DNA.
