The choices are:

A) Fossils are preserved in the rocks formed from the sediments deposited by rivers.

B)The bodies of organisms get preserved due to the dry weather conditions in the state.

C)The bodies of the organisms were preserved as lava from ancient volcanoes solidified into rock.

D) The erosion caused by the flooding of the Mississippi River ensures that the bodies of the organisms are well preserved.

Answer:

The answer is letter A, Fossils are preserved in the rocks formed from the sediments deposited by rivers.

Explanation:

"Fossils" are regarded as the<em> organism's preserved remains. </em>The remains of ancient organisms are embedded into the "sedimentary rocks." These rocks are comprised of layers of sediments or organic particles that settle into the earth or ocean.

In the situation above, the remains or fossils of whales and other organisms were embedded or deposited into the sediments in the river beds. This explains why their fossils were found in the southern parts of Mississippi.

kicyunya [14]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"You determine that you have only 3 copies left of an important DNA fragment, so you decide to amplify it. Using flanking primers, how many PCR cycles would you have to run to generate over one billion (10^9) copies of the fragment? "

Answer:

Approximately 29 cycles of PCR would be required.

Explanation:

As you may already know, PCR is a technique used in molecular biology that allows part of a DNA molecule to be recycled into millions of copies.

PCR allows this replication to be done through cycles. Each PCR cycle lasts about 2 minutes and allows the DNA molecule to undergo the separation of the strands, the binding of the primers and the synthesis of new DNA strands through DNA polymerase. This cycle is usually repeated 32 times, but this number may change depending on the number of copies the researcher thinks is necessary.

In this case, if a researcher wants 10 ^ 9 copies of DNA, he must do the following calculation to find the number of PCR cycles needed:

32 ^ x = 10 ^ 9

x = 28.3 = approximately 29 cycles.
