Answer:

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

Explanation:

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method by which a target DNA fragment is amplified to produce millions of copies. In PCR, the Taq polymerase enzyme uses nucleotides and primers to replicate a small DNA segment <em>in vitro</em> and produces two DNA molecules. The newly formed DNA molecules are denatured by heating to facilitate their replication to produce four double-stranded DNA molecules. In this way, the number of DNA molecules is doubled in each cycle. Therefore, the small amount of DNA obtained from the minuscule spot of blood on a murder suspect’s shirt can be amplified using PCR.

Which way of organizing DNA best ensure that the information contained on each strand can be accessed
eduard

The information stored in the order of bases is organized into genes: each gene contains information for making a functional product. The genetic information is first copied to another nucleic acid polymer, RNA (ribonucleic acid), preserving the order of the nucleotide bases. Genes that contain instructions for making proteins are converted to messenger RNA (mRNA). Some specialized genes contain instructions for making functional RNA molecules that don’t make proteins. These RNA molecules function by affecting cellular processes directly; for example some of these RNA molecules regulate the expression of mRNA. Other genes produce RNA molecules that are required for protein synthesis, transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

What is unique about a simulation that is not necessarily true about all models?
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

Simulation is imitating a process. It is doing exactly like a system will do. It can be used in technologies, education, health, training,

safety engineering. Simulation can be used when the original or exact system is not in place, or cannot be accessed.

A model is a process that helps to understands a system. A model is like an example to follow in achieving a result. A model may not be followed judiciously such that you may require an aspect of the model and then use but not necessarily all attributes while a simulation does exactly what the system does.
