Answer:

few predatory lacewings exist in the trees now because they were killed by the spray.

The spray that farmers used, as noted, also killed the populations of a predatory lacewing.

Due to this, few predatory lacewing remained that could not fully deal with the scale population.

This in turn led to the multiplication of scale now that their predators had been done away with.

OleMash [197]

Answer/Explanation:

  • You would have to be very careful of cross-contamination. That means you would have to work very carefully and precisely with protective clothing, ensuring that none of your DNA (from skin or hair or even trace) gets into the sample you are working with
  • You would have to be very careful to check and record samples properly to ensure nothing got mixed up or mislabeled and this could be disastrous for criminal cases
  • All the material is very precious and sometimes only one sample exists, so you have to avoid making any mistakes. Experiments can't always be repeated.
