Answer:
-56
Explanation:
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is the discriminant of the quadratic equation
3 - 4x= -6x^2
to
-6x^2 + 4x -3 = 0
We know that:
a = -6
b = 4
c = -3
Substitute in the formula of discriminant (b^2 - 4ac):
= 4^2 - 4 * (-6) * (-3)
= 16 - 4 * 18
= -56
<span>Water has a surface skin. Some insects are able to generate tiny bubbles under their bodies which makes them buoyant enough to not break thru the water's skin. This skin is also known as surface tension. </span><span>Some bugs and small objects (pins or paperclips, etc) can rest on the surface of the water due to surface tension. Water molecules are bipolar and attract each other forming a skin. The bug or paperclip make tiny depressions in the water skin which provides buoyancy. A detergent will ruin the water tension (because it is a wetting agent) and the bug or paperclip will sink.</span><span>

Answer:
Selective breeding
Explanation:
In order to get a dog that has specific desirable trait/s, then the owners of the dogs have to get involved. The involvement should be in the manner of only allowing dogs that have the same trait to breed between each other, but in no case to be allowed to breed with other dogs that do not posses that particular trait. In this way, the offspring will inherit the desirable trait from their parents, and if the selective breeding continues, then there will be a new dog type on the scene that will be unique by its trait/s.
Answer:
B) Prokaryotic DNA is much smaller than eukaryotic DNA.
Explanation:
In biology, one event is correlated with the other event or structure like observed in the DNA. The genetic material of a eukaryote and a prokaryote differ from the other in many ways:
1. The prokaryote possesses only one chromosome which is double-stranded and circular.
2. The eukaryotic organism exhibits more than one chromosome which is not circular.
Since the prokaryotes possess very less amount of DNA then the eukaryotes therefore during DNA replication, the DNA of prokaryote require only one origin of replication from where the replication will start.
Thus, Option-B is correct.
Answer: The question is incorrect, below is the correct question
Which DNA FINGERPRINTING technique examines the length variation of DNA repeat sequences in human DNA?
The correct answer to the question is option D
mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) analysis
Explanation: DNA fingerprinting technique is a laboratory technique used by geneticists.it entails placing of DNA samples into wells,these wells are then placed in a slab of gels and thereafter passing a current through the gel.This is done to ascertain the uniqueness of a DNA pattern and thus be able to differentiate people of same species.
There are several methods of DNA fingerprinting as outlined in the options given with the question.
In mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) analysis,The Genetic samples are extracted from the biological materials, these samples extracted are total genomic DNA like hair,tooth or samples of blood, Several copies of these genomic DNA are then produced using a polymerase chain reaction and flanking primers inorder to examines the length variation of DNA repeat sequences in human DNA.
