Answer:

The correct answer is "9 cycles".

Explanation:

The minimum number of cycles necessary to replicate a fragment of DNA over 500 times is 9 cycles. In Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method, the fragments of DNA are doubled in each cycle. This means that after "n" cycles, the total number of fragments is given by the equation 2^n. In this case, after 9 cycles a total of 512 DNA fragments will be obtained, because 2^9 is equal to 512.

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Both A alleles and B alleles are dominant over the O alleles. This means that both parents must have an O allele present to even have a chance of having a child with type O blood. Lets say the mother has type O blood with the father having type AB blood. The possible combination would be: AO, BO, AO, BO. The punnett square should look like this:

        A          B

O     AO        BO

O     AO        BO

Eddi Din [679]
Think where mitochondria are found in the greatest numbers - they are found (for example) in liver cells, kidney cells, muscle cells etc. These tissues carry out a lot of work and thus require lots of energy. 

<span>Fat is a storage product that sits there until required but the thyroid does lots of work involved in metabolism and therefore requires plenty of energy.


This should help :)
