The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has revolutionized biology and medicine, by allowing small regions of DNA to be amplified up

to a billion-fold over 30 cycles in a few hours. Each cycle involves heating the DNA to 95°C to separate the two strands, the sample is then cooled to allow primers to bind, and finally the temperature is raised to the optimal temperature for the DNA polymerase to replicate the DNA. This process makes use of the DNA polymerase from a species of bacteria isolated from hot springs, Thermus aquaticus, which grows at 70°C. Human body temperature is 37°C. What would you predict about the DNA polymerase from T. aquaticus compared with DNA polymerases from human cells?

Answer:

DNA polymerases from human cells will denature under these conditions.

Explanation:

Under the PCR conditions described, DNA polymerase from <em>T. aquaticus </em>would be more effective than DNA polymerase from human cells. This is due to the higher optimal temperature of DNA polymerase from <em>T. aquaticus. </em>

Which area of biology states that living things undergo gradual, structural, and functional changes over long periods of time
Tasya [4]

Given what we know,  we can confirm that the area of biology that states that living things undergo gradual, structural, and functional changes over long periods of time is referred to as evolution.

<h3>What we know about evolution. </h3>
  • This is a theory that was put forward by Charles Darwin.
  • Evolution accounts for the structural and functional changes that are passed down from one generation to the next.
  • The changes produced by evolution are very slow in that they may take many generations to complete a noticeably change.
  • These changes are hereditary.

Therefore, we can confirm that the theory of evolution put forward by Charles Darwin states that living things undergo gradual, structural, and functional changes over long periods of time.

In Drosophila, the genes for body coloration and eye size are on different chromosomes. Normal-colored bodies are dominant to eb
hammer [34]

Answer:

150.

Explanation:

150 flies are expected to have normal body color and to be eyeless in F2 generation. The reason for that population is the ratio of the species produced. The ratio of the species are 9:3:3:1. Ratio 9 refers to first parent while 1 refers to second parent and the middle 3's represent the hybrid formed. So the population of first parent is 450 and population of second parent is 50 while the population of two hybrids are 150 each.
