Answer:

Complimentary base pairings

Answer:

-Complementary base pairing

Explanation:

DNA probes can be defined as fragments of single stranded DNA molecules, which are used to to detect the presence of target DNA sample. The nucleotide sequence in probes is complementary to the nucleotide sequence of target DNA.

Hence, probes detect DNA by hybridizing to single stranded target DNA according to complementary base-pairing rule. Nitrogen bases present in probe and target DNA make hydrogen bonds with each other (adenine binds with thymine and guanine binds with cytosine (and vice versa) and target DNA is detected.

Thus, the correct answer is 'complementary base-pairing.'

What is an effect of genetic drift on a gene pool?
Ahat [919]

Genetic drift happens by chance and can make an allele disappear completely from a gene pool, even if it was a desirable trait that should have been passed down to offspring. The random sampling style of genetic drift shrinks the gene pool and therefore alters the frequency the alleles are found in the population.

If you turned a frog egg upside down, you would expect it to reorient relative to gravity because?
lianna [129]

If you turned a frog egg upside down, you would expect it to reorient relative to gravity because the dense yolk granules concentrated in the vegetal hemisphere of the egg respond to gravity.

The frog egg is very large as compared to the normal egg cell. It is unevenly distributed with a top dark colored pole called animal pole and a light yolky pole called a vegetal pole.

The vegetal pole is concentrated with the yolk that is present for providing the nourishment to the growing embryo. The animal pole is the one from where the sperm enters and the development of embryo take place.

As the vegetal pole is denser as compared to animal pole so it will respond to the gravity and reorient along the direction of gravity.
