Answer:

The correct answer is: D. a piece of non-coding DNA consisting of 2–5 repeating sequences of base pairs.

Explanation:

STRs, abbreviated from Short Tandem Repeat, are microsatellites: sequences of non-coding DNA that repeat units that are 2 to 5 base pairs in length. The number of repetitions of these sequences <u>varies from people to people</u>, which gives it a significant importance in the fields of forensics, where is used to identify a person.

<u>Non-coding DNA is a sequence that will not translate into any protein.</u> Half of our DNA is made of non-coding DNA.

3. a) What components of DNA are of particular use in gel electrophoresis, and why? (2 points)
Yuri [45]

Answer:

DNA molecular weight standard controls, also known as DNA ladders

Explanation:

A DNA ladder is a molecular-weight size marker used to identify the size of the PCR products in a gel electrophoresis. The DNA ladder consists of a solution containing double-stranded DNA fragments with different molecular weights including, among others, 50 base pairs (bp), 100 bp, 1000 bp and 3000 bp DNA fragments. The concentration of each DNA fragment in the DNA ladder must be sufficiently high to be visualized on the electrophoresis gel.

Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!
lora16 [44]

Answer:

253.585 square inches

Explanation:

The figure can be decomposed into 2 rectangles and a quarter circle.

Area of the figure = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 + area of ¼(circle)

✔️Area of rectangle 1 = Length × width

Length = 10 in

Width = 6 in

Area of rectangle 1 = 10*6 = 60 in²

✔️Area of rectangle 2 = Length × width

Length = 10 in

Width = 6 + 7 = 13 in

Area of rectangle 2 = 10*13 = 130 in²

✔️Area of ¼(circle) = ¼(πr²)

r = 9 in

π = 3.14

Area of ¼(circle) = ¼(3.14*9²) = 63.585 in²

✅Area of the figure = 60 + 130 + 63.585 = 253.585 square inches
