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.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

sweepstake route

Explanation:

From the view of the horses, the ocean barrier would be seen as a  <u>sweepstake route</u>.

<em>By definition, the sweepstake route refers to a rather difficult or dangerous path through which animals can move from one place to another. No animal would take this path ordinarily except by pure chance or when events leave no other option.</em>

In the illustration, no horse would engage in an adventure of swimming across the ocean to North America until the European settlers decided to ferry them across. Hence, to the horses, the ocean barrier represents a sweepstake route.
