Answer:

The STR fragments will have different size for different animals.

Explanation:

  • STR means Short Tandem Repeats.
  • STR forms the genome's microsatellite region.
  • STR or microsatellite is that region of the genome where, about two to seven base pairs of the DNA (for example, ATGATGATGATG), are  repeated for multiple time. Such sequences can have few hundred repeats.
  • While replicating these micro-satellite regions, the accuracy of the DNA polymerase in proof-reading the sequence of the newly synthesised strand, decreases, due to the multiple repeats.
  • As a result of this, the DNA polymerase either adds more or adds less of such repeated sequences as compared to the parental DNA sequence. This results in generation of polymorphism (different microsatellite size in different individuals) in the repeat regions.
  • Due to difference in size of the STR in different individuals, the size of the fragment amplified through PCR will vary for different elephants.

Why cannot we digest raw green plants in our alimentary canal?
Triss [41]
We basicly can't digest them as it has cellulose and we can't digest cellulose .acc. to me in olden days early men used to survive with raw green plants because the cellulose is digested by our appendix  but slowly as  we stopped eating raw green plants the appendix lost it function tooo. so  we should always eat a  selective plant like lettuce

In that way, different types of organisms--plants, animals, bacteria, etc.--can all be differentiated through their DNA because it is directly linked to how they function.

1. If the strength of the magnetic field at A is 64 units, the strength of the magnetic field at B is _____.
borishaifa [10]

1. The strength of magnetic field at A is 64 unit, then the magnetic field strength at B. is 256 units.

64 × 64 = 256 units.

2. If the strength of magnetic field B is 6 units then the strength magnetic field at A is 24 units.

which is 256 : 4 = 16 units.

Magnetic field is one of the two ways where the intensity of magnetic field is being expressed.

A population of Purple Gorillas feeds entirely on plants. But some of these Gorillas are good at digesting Plant A, while others
Ray Of Light [21]
The species has a higher chance of survival as there are 3 plant types, even if 2 of those die out, there's a portion of the purple gorillas that can still eat the remaining plant type
