Answer:

mtDNA is used when other forms of DNA analysis are not possible because it does not rely on nuclear DNA.

mtDNA may also be useful in missing-person cases.

PCR analysis allows a small amount of DNA to be duplicated into a testing amount.

Y chromosome analysis examines genetic markers that are passed from father to son.

Answer/Explanation:

STR analysis

Short tandem repeats (STRs) are the genetic information present in the FBI's database. These are repetitive regions of the genome, and used for DNA profiling in a variety of applications. They can be used to discriminate between non-related individuals, as people have different numbers of repeating units. A combination of approximately 13 regions are analysed, giving a unique genetic fingerprint

mtDNA analysis

mt DNA is mitochondrial DNA. This type of analysis can trace the maternal lineage of a person, as mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother, and is largely unchanged throughout a maternal line. This is often useful when DNA is too degraded to obtain accurate STRs, as there are many more copies of mtDNA in the cell than nuclear DNA. It is also useful for linking missing relatives.

The following system is at equilibrium:
Delvig [45]

Answer:

1) No shift

2) No shift

3) Leftward shift

4)Rightward sifht

Explanation:

1) 2) Adding N or Removing N in the equilibrium will produce No shift, because of its solid state, the N is not contemplated in the equilibrium equation:

K=\frac{[L]^2}{[M]^3}

3) Increasing the volume produces a decrase in the preassure due to the expansion of the gases. This will cause a leftward shift, because the system will try to increase the moles of gas and in consecuence of this, also increase the preassure.

4) Decreasing the volume has the opposite effect of the item 3): the preassure will increase and the system will consume moles of gas to decrease it, producing a rightward shift.

Astronomers studying the planet of Rhombus have detected sedimentary rock on its surface. One astronomer wonders if material in
Fed [463]

Answer:

igneous rock CAN become sedimentary rock through a process called ROCK CYCLE.

Explanation:

Rocks can be defined as solid structures of minerals that are formed naturally over a period of time. They are grouped into three main types which includes the following:

- igneous rock

- sedimentary rocks and

- metamorphic rocks.

Rocks are capable of transforming from one type to another through a process known as rock cycle. There are two forces that brings about this process which includes:

- The internal force : this is the Earth’s internal heat engine, which moves material around in the core and the mantle and leads to slow but significant changes within the crust.

- The external force: this is the the hydrological cycle, which is the movement of water, ice, and air at the surface, and is powered by the sun.

Molten magma cools to form either extrusive igneous rock or intrusive igneous rock. With time they undergo weathering, eroded, transported, and then deposited as sediments which are being compressed and cemented into SEDIMENTARY ROCKS. Again through the above mentioned forces, different kinds of rocks are either uplifted, to be re-eroded, or buried deeper within the crust where they are heated up, squeezed, and changed into METAMORPHIC ROCK.

Therefore the material in this sedimentary rock found in Rhombus planet used to be in igneous rock deep in Rhombus's interior due to continuous rock cycling on the planet. I hope this helps, thanks.
