Another step in PCR requires small single-stranded DNA primers to anneal to a target sequence on denatured DNA. Two primers are

used. Ideally these primers will have similar melting temperatures. The melting temperature is defined as the temperature at which 50% of the DNA is in the single-stranded form. Which of the following primers will have the highest melting temperature?
A. GGGGAAATTTCCCC.
B. AAAAGGGCCCTTTT.
C. AAAAGGCCTTTT.
D. GGGAAATTTCCC.

Answer:

A. GGGGAAATTTCCCC.

Explanation:

When calculating the melting temperature in the DNA primers, we use the formula:

( 2 × ( A + T ) ) + ( 4 × ( G + C ) )

From the above formula; it is obvious that G and C have a greater tendency of participation when determining which DNA primers that have the highest melting temperature.

A.  GGGGAAATTTCCCC = 8

B. AAAAGGGCCCTTTT   = 6

C. AAAAGGCCTTTT        = 4

D. GGGAAATTTCCC        = 6

From the given options, we can see that option A have the highest component of G and C.

It's not cilia because cilia found in nearly all the cells in the body.
It's not mitochondria; those are found in liver cells and others.
It's not lysosomes because those function as the digestive system in the cell.
That means the answer is flagella

Answer:

<em>A line graph</em>

Explanation:

A line graph would be the best type of graph to show changes over time. A line graph constitutes of a y-axis and an X- axis. The presence of the axis will make is easier to look at the height changes which occur over time. The y-axis of such a graph could show the height, the X axis of such a graph could show the time. Hence, a line graph could be the best one to represent such a  change.
