Answer:

They would use PCR to amplify the DNA.

Explanation:

PCR or Polymerase Chain Reaction, using a thermostable enzyme, Taq Polymerase. It is a molecular biology technique, whose objective is to obtain a large number of copies of a DNA fragment of interest, starting from a minimum. It is done in a thermal cycler.

This technique serves to amplify a DNA fragment; after amplification it is much easier to identify with a very high probability, virus or bacteria causing a disease, identify people or do scientific research on amplified DNA.

What is the main difference between a producer and a consumer? Give an example to support your answer
nalin [4]
Producers <span>have the ability to make their own food using an energy source, like the sun. An example of this would be a plant.
</span>Consumers<span> are broken into two groups: primary and secondary. 
</span>Primary consumers<span> are the herbivores that eat the producers. 
</span>Secondary consumers<span> are the carnivores that eat the primary consumers.
Deer are herbivores and wolves are carnivores; they are both consumers.
</span>So the main difference between producers and consumer are that producers make their own food and consumers can't. They eat producers and other consumers.
