QUESTION 31 Chipmunk mitochondrial DNA was fingerprinted using the single primer amplified region technique (SPAR) and the PCR r

eaction. One four base primer was used. If the DNA from chipmunk mitochondria is a circlular piece of DNA about 16000 base pairs long, how many fragments should be produced by this technique

6 0

Answer:

It depends on the size of the amplified DNA fragments (for example for SPAR markers consisting of 200 bp in length >> 1600 / 200 = 8)

Explanation:

The PCR based single primer amplification reaction (SPAR) methods are tools for detecting genetic diversity by using DNA markers such as Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSRs), Minisatellite DNA regions (DAMDs) and Random Amplified Polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs), which can be used alone or combined with each other. In the last years, the SPAR methods have gained attention in the scientific community because they are cost-effective and highly effective for the detection of both intraspecific and interspecific genetic variation. In the SPAR methods, the size of the bands will depend on the length of the amplified DNA fragments.

A mutation in a gene that controls mitosis in cells may cause? a) cancer. b) cystic fibrosis. c) albinism. d) meiosis.
harkovskaia [24]
The answer is <span>a) cancer.

</span><span>Cells must control mitosis (cell division) in order to maintain normal cell function. If something happens to the control of mitosis, the healthy cells will divide uncontrollably. These new cells are cancer cells and they are also out of control. They will continue to divide uncontrollably, so the mass of the cancer cells will grow.
</span>Regarding other choices:
- cystic fibrosis is an inherited disorder of lungs and digestive system,
- albinism is a congenital disorder characterised by the absence of pigment in the skin and hair,
- meiosis is cell division resulting in the reduction of a chromosome number in half.
