Answer: 5
Explanation:
Since 1 out of 200 people carry the defective gene that causes inherited colon cancer.
In a sample of 1000 individuals, we say
1 = 200
y = 1000
cross multiply
y x 200 = 1000 x 1
200y = 1000
y = 1000/200
y = 5
Thus, in a sample of 1000 individuals, approximately 5 will be carriers
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.
Answer:
food, water, and breathing space
Explanation:
The earth is about 6,000 years old.
P = mv
This is a momentum question:
Momentum is always conserved so the momentum before and after a collision must be equal so:
The velocity of the two objects after they collide and dont stick together if no KE is lost is dependent on the mass of each of the objects by:
Where i is initial and f is final meaning before and after the collision
