RFLP or Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism exploits the variation of homologous DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) sequences. This technique is frequently used in different types of analysis such as genotyping, paternity tests, forensics, hereditary disease diagnostics, and many others. In diagnosing diseases, PCR is use to find the DNA of pathogens in small amounts to diagnose hundreds of genetic diseases. While in forensic investigations, PCR can give a probably ID from 20 cells.

Answer:
The F1 progeny is completely heterozygous for the <em>loci</em> of interest since they were obtained by mating between two pure-breeding plant lines. In the next generation, the backcross progeny will have homo-zygous individuals and therefore they will be more variable, resulting from meiosis in F1 hybrids
Explanation:
An F1 resulting from the cross between two pure-breeding plant lines will produce all hybrid individuals, all of them genetically (and phenotypically) identical. Meiosis in F1 hybrids is well known to produce homo-zygous genotypes and thus increases genetic diversity in progeny. For instance, for a single <em>locus</em>, the expected ratio of genotypes obtained from crossing two heterozygous parents is 1:2:1, i.e., one homo-zigous dominant individual, two heterozygous individuals (genetically identical to the parents) and one homo-zygous recessive individual; while the expected phenotypic ratio is 3:1 (i.e., 3 dominant expressing: 1 recessive expressing).
Answer:
A living thing's first feature is that it is made up of cells. A cell is the basic structural unit of all organisms. It is the smallest organization structure in a living thing. They contain the organism's genetic information (DNA) and can replicate themselves in a process known as mitosis.
Answer:
This is because of how reproduction works in humans. Male and female sex cells are formed by a process called meiosis, where the diploid chromosomes divide and separate. And so the ratio of male to female births is also 50:50.
