<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is, " the exact location of a particular disease-causing gene can be determined".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • <u>Premature genetic testing is the method to identify the different genetic anomalies in the baby before birth by testing the amniotic fluid.</u>
  • First, the fluid is taken and embryonic cells are separated from the fluid and then genome, DNA is separated.
  • Then the genome of the baby is compared with the discovered human genome.
  • The defected gene is then identified with its location in the genome.
  • Hence in genetic testing discovered human genome is used to identify the location of the defected gene.

Calculate percentage change in mass for chip 5
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 14.41%.

Explanation:

Given:

The initial mass of chip 5 -

end mass of chip 5 -

Percent Change in Mass =  /

Formula used:

Mass Difference= Final Mass- Initial Mass

Percent Change in Mass = (Mass Difference/Initial Mass) *100

Solution:

Putting the value in the formula:

Mass Difference = 2.15 - 1.84

= 0.31

Percent Change in Mass = (0.31/2.15)*100

= 14.41

Thus, the correct answer is - 14.41.
