<span>The answer is A.
The wildfire decimates abiotic and biotic
factors in a populations' habitat hence reducing the resources
required to sustain the entire population. This devastates the population numbers
due to increased competition for reduced
resources. Wildfire especially decimates
primary producers hence affecting the organisms up the food chain. </span>
The answer is negative controls. These are groups where no phenomenon is probable. They ensure that there is no effect when there should be no effect. Where there are only two possible outcomes, e.g. positive or negative, if the treatment group and the negative control both produce a negative result, it can be concluded that the treatment had no effect. If the negative control group and the treatment group both yield a positive result, it can be inferred that a puzzling variable is involved in the occurrence under study, and the positive results are not only due to the treatment. In other examples, outcomes might be measured as lengths, times, percentages, and so forth.
Primates have large brains (relative to body size) compared to other mammals, as well as an increased reliance on visual acuity at the expense of the sense of smell
Answer:
The correct answer is <em>A. real-time PCR can measure the amount of DNA amplified as the reaction proceeds, while standard PCR cannot.</em>
Explanation:
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a molecular biology technique. Conventional PCR and real-time PCR are diferent types of PCR, and are both used to exponentially amplify DNA molecules. In both types, a polimerase enzyme is employed to sinthesize DNA copies. The main difference is that conventional PCR is qualitative whereas real-time PCR is quantitative. So, real-time PCR permits not only to detect and amplify DNA but also permits to perform a quantification of the target DNA. This is accomplished by measuring a fluorescence signal - which is directly the amount of DNA amplified- during the course of the reaction.
